While chocolate is quite clearly a favourite among children, sometimes these things are just too good to share! This naughty but nice recipe has been shared with us by the Queen’s Arms pub in Edinburgh, who are celebrating Chocolate Week with a little something for the grown-ups with this creamy, silky whisky-based cocktail.

A really nice whisky based drink, using Auchentoshan three wood, a triple distilled heavily sherried lowland malt, Araku coffee liqueur, half ‘n’ half and chocolate bitters. Simple, yet sumptuous.
Prep Time
5 min
Ingredients
- 37.5ml Auchentoshan three wood whisky
- 25ml Araku (coffee liqueur)
- 50ml half ‘n’ half (as the name suggests half milk, half cream)
- 2 dash Aztec chocolate bitters
Instructions
- Shake all ingredients together
- Fine strain into glass
- Grate chocolate on top
- Serve in a crystal flute with dark chocolate shavings on top as a garnish
Notes
- The Queens Arms is an Edinburgh gem. The local pub is situated just off of George Street, in Edinburgh’s bustling new town. A favourite with both locals and tourists, The Queens Arms is a quirky pub with a homely feel.
- With a brilliant drink selection ranging from real ales, Scottish Whiskys and their own twist on some classic cocktails, The Queens Arms is a pub to cater to all tastes.
