Dessert Cocktail with Godiva Chocolate Liqueur
This year’s big holidays are over, but we are coming around the corner to Valentine’s Day!
Whether you celebrate it with friends, family, or one person you love, it is such a fun day to express how much you love somebody!
For me, Valentine’s Day always brings back memories of being in elementary school, and gathering Valentine’s cards from classmates. SO much fun!
As always, it’s such a refreshing break from the cold, gray days of winter.
I mean, who doesn’t love the splashes of red, pink and, of course, CHOCOLATE!
Oh, and if you’re looking for great chocolate, look no further than my post, The Best Chocolate! Where in the World to Get it!
And speaking of chocolate…..I’ve got some Godiva Chocolate Liqueur left over from when I made my Birthday Cake Shooter! dessert cocktail recipe.
Also, I have some Disaronno (Amaretto).
So, I started looking for a chocolate dessert cocktail that had both of these liqueurs in them, and actually had a hard time finding what I wanted.
What is a Dessert Cocktail?
First of all, what IS a dessert cocktail anyway?
A dessert cocktail can also be called an after-dinner drink or a dessert drink.
The Spruce Eats explains it perfectly in their delicious dessert cocktail recipes post.
Dessert cocktails are a ‘great way to satisfy your sweet tooth’.
“Recipes include creamy indulgences filled with vodka, chocolate, mint, and bananas.” Mmm!
In addition, many dessert cocktails are inspired by our favorite edible desserts.
A few examples, which the consensus seems to be dessert martinis, are the Snickertini, the Banana Cream Pie, the Espresso Martini Cheesecake, or the Tiramisu Martini. Oh my!
So why not satisfy your dessert craving and get a little buzz on while you’re at it!
How I Developed This Recipe
So I did a little bit of research and found that there is a drink called Almond Joy (Chocolate Liqueur, Amaretto, Coconut Rum, Cream) that sounds SO good!
BUT, I felt like that was too well-known.
SO, I created my own little chocolate cocktail concoction!
This particular recipe is one of those dessert drinks with vodka.
And I have to say, it’s GOOD!
Surprisingly, I wasn’t able to find this combination anywhere, but if you happen to know this drink and it has a name to it please let me know!
I shall call it, in honor of Valentine’s Day, the Chocolate Kiss Shooter!
