There are some gorgeous chocolate cocktails around and as you can no doubt tell from past posts I adore most of them! I really like the Macaroon - you can check out the Macaroon recipe here - and was planning on making one last night, but you know what we had no amaretto!
I decided to use Frangelico in it's place and the result was very much like another chocolate cocktail that I'm sure I have talked about - it was delicious.
6 parts vodka
1 part chocolate liqueur
1 part frangelico
Shake the ingredients together with ice and serve.
What should I call this cocktail though? Perhaps you can help me to christen it and then I can label it and add it to one of my cocktail pages. Try it out and think of the perfect name and post it here - there are no prizes just the sense of pride you can feel in yourself because you've christened a cocktail!

Choc Nut Delight - A Heavenly Cocktail
When my mum comes over to stay I like to mix up a cocktail for us to celebrate. She loves creamy and chocolatey cocktails, like me. Last time she was here I made us the following concoction:-
Choc Nut Delight
30ml dark creme de cacao
15ml kahlua
15ml frangelico
30ml cream
30ml milk
I placed all of the ingredients into my shaker with ice and shook well. Then I strained it into a cocktail glass and topped it with grated chocolate - delicious.
I added the kahlua because cofee flavors can sometimes help to intensify the chocolate flavor. I only put 15ml of the frangelico because I wanted the nutty flavor to be in the background and not overpowering. Why did I use cream and milk - I was feeling lazy! Obviously you can use half'n'half, I just didn't want to make any - we had gossiping to do!
This illustrates a fun thing with cocktails - if you don't have something, substitute and make up a name for your 'new' cocktail!
