Method

Cocktail

  1. 1

    Prepare glass

    Chill a martini or coupe glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes. If you like a chocolate-draped presentation, drizzle about 1 tablespoon chocolate syrup around the inside of the chilled glass, letting it streak down the sides. Set the glass aside.

  2. 2

    Mix

    Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice (about 1 cup). Add 1.5 oz Kahlúa, 1.5 oz vodka, 1 oz chocolate liqueur, and 1 oz heavy cream to the shaker.

  3. 3

    Shake

    Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is frosty and the cream is well emulsified, producing a slightly foamy texture.

  4. 4

    Strain & serve

    Double-strain the cocktail through a Hawthorne or fine mesh strainer into the prepared chilled glass to remove ice shards. If desired, add a small drizzle of chocolate syrup across the surface.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Lightly sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of shaved chocolate or a dusting of cocoa powder over the top of the cocktail. Serve immediately.
