Well I'm at it again.

Same deal, few ingredients, but with a different goal.

Chocolate. The goal here is chocolate. The drink can't be heavy, no cream and stuff like that. Fruit has to be avoided due to a new Salicylic Acid allergy as do a number of other ingredients.

Aaaaaaaaaand... go!

Some of you guys:

No cream, remember? No heavy. Not hot chocolate.

I'll second the chocolate martini. (Although I'd say the standard is 2oz Vodka:1/2oz creme de cacao/chocolate liqueur)

Hmm... Maybe some sort of chocolate soda?
Fill glass with ice, drizzle in lots of chocolate syrup, add vanilla vodka, fill with soda water.

Rather than using a chocolate stout, start with a dry stout and add a shot of chocolate liqueur to it.
Edit: or mix chocolate liqueur with a Berlinerweisse (low alcohol, mildly sour, white-wheat beer), unflavored lambic (Belgian sour ale)... maybe even with Hoegaarden.

Not a cocktail but still good: Chocolate cake shots

Frangelico Vodka Lemon wedges Sugar

Half Frangelico, half vodka in a shot glass. Coat a lemon wedge in sugar. Bite lemon, suck out juice, but don't swallow yet. Take shot. Smile. Repeat as needed.

Drink: UV Chocolate Cake Vodka

Ingredients:

  • 1 Bottle (750ml) UV brand Chocolate Cake flavored vodka

Prepare:

  • Purchase bottle
  • Chill bottle in freezer over night
  • Open bottle and consume

(Seriously, though, UV and Pinnacle both have some really fantastic flavored vodka flavors that are really good all by themselves, and they both have some various degrees of chocolate)

You said cream is out, does that also rule out a cream liqueur like Bailey's? I draw some lines in a martini glass with Hershey's syrup, then shake 2 parts Bailey's with 1 part Butterscotch schnapps, strain over the chocolate, then put a dollop of whipped cream (which you can omit, of course), and then sprinkle on a little cinnamon. Personally, I prefer using Buffalo Trace Bourbon Cream, but I know that has actual cream in it, but I know Bailey's doesn't have to be refrigerated, so maybe that's not really cream?

I am going to have to look into the ingredients on these guys, not sure what is in them. She's allergic to damn near everything, so we're looking for as close to "Vodka and cocoa powder" as we can get, basically. Thanks for the suggestions so far!

what is in the UV chocolate cake vodka?

What is in Godiva chocolate liqueur?

She cannot do artificial flavors, colors, natural fruits, anise, almond, etc..

Apparently I was wrong about the cream, so now teach me to make a chocolate vodka if the ingredients in the UV stuff won't work.

In a mixing tumbler, pour a measure of tonic water, two spoons of chocolate syrup, a half spoon of instant coffee, and crushed ice.

Then dump this in the sink and pour some Knob Creek into a glass, preferably in a different room but beggars can't be choosers.
