The Essential Chocolate Daiquiri –

The Essential Chocolate Daiquiri – I was recently in Cuba, supposedly having the time of my life. All of my friends were in Havana, leaving me alone in Cienfuegos, Cuba’s second largest city. I was in my own little world, with little to do but explore. One night I stumbled upon a little hole-in-the-wall bar in this little town called Habana Vieja. There were no frills to the place, just cold beer and good music, but above all the place was positively buzzing with life.

The Essential Chocolate Daiquiri Make sure everything is as it should be. Ice cubes. Sandwiches. To make an Essential Chocolate Daiquiri, you need to start with a quality rum. I like Cruzan Blackstrap Rum. The rum is brought to a boil and simmered for approximately 45 minutes. And there you have it: the Essential Chocolate Daiquiri.

The Daiquiri has been claimed to have originated in Cuba, but many claim it was invented in the United States. It’s no wonder the “Lone Star State” has so many variations – there are so many different types of rum to choose from. Whether you’re looking for light rum, dark rum, spiced rum, white rum, or gold rum, it’s easy to find a daiquiri recipe that will suit you..

This chocolate daiquiri recipe was created in collaboration with Bouchard Chocolate. It’s opulent and decadent.

I’m all set for some Christmas entertaining!

 

I tried half-and-half, low-fat milk, evaporated milk, and heavy cream in different combinations.

Despite my best efforts to save calories, I preferred the heavy cream version. But the half-and-half and evaporated milk versions were equally delicious!

If you’re going to consume chocolate in a liquid form, I think you may as well go all out. This is not the place to lose weight.

I also made a comparison between vodka and rum. Rum gets my vote!

So, let’s get down to business with the chocolate.

Since 1931, #BouchardChocolate has been in operation.

Their dark chocolate Napolitains were the chocolate I tried. Individually wrapped pieces of chocolate bliss with a 72 percent cacao content. The chocolate has a deep flavor without the harsh aftertaste that you may get in other dark chocolates. This is due to Bouchard Chocolate’s utilization of high-quality ingredients.

How do you feel about dark chocolate?

Dark chocolate, in my opinion, is a chocolate for adults. My initial idea was to make a cocktail, but this chocolate was also used in Chocolate-Orange Scones. What a delight! That recipe will be posted shortly! (Sign up for our email to make sure you don’t miss out on any new recipes!)

Bouchard Chocolate is located in the Belgian city of Ghent. When Jeff and I were in Germany in 2014, we were able to take Jackie on a tour to Belgium. We stuffed ourselves with chocolate, beer, and waffles.

This is an incredible, beautiful location. You should definitely go! We should definitely go!

 

Can’t afford a spontaneous vacation to Belgium?

Bouchard Chocolate is available in Costco, so don’t worry!
