Haven’t had enough chocolate, have you? Well, then, you’ve come to the right place. Today’s cocktail, the Frangelico Easter Truffle, is “the ultimate Easter cocktail with a smooth blend of Frangelico hazelnut liqueur, SKYY Vodka, chilled espresso finished with a dusting of chocolate shavings that is sure to satisfy your candy craving,” says Kristin Newbigging, Account Coordinator at Skyy Vodka.

Although I would always encourage you to use whatever brand of drink you happen to have on hand, I can’t stress enough the importance of quality. Please make sure that you use the very best vodka and espresso. When you’re working with a recipe that requires so few ingredients, quality really does matter. Get the best you can afford. Buy the one you like the best. In the end, you’ll enjoy the recipe that much more. Once you have the necessary ingredients at hand, toss this cocktail together quickly, and enjoy a job well done. This is the long Easter weekend, and you’re ready for it. If you’re not, don’t worry. Kick back with a tasty treat for a job well done. The myriad items on your long list will get done eventually.
