Preparation and cooking times
Ready in 15 mins
- Measure the gin or vodka in a jug. Melt the chocolate and pour into the alcohol, whisking all the time, until smoothly blended. Add the chocolate liqueur.
- For each cocktail, shake 100ml of the chocolate liquid with crushed ice and strain into a martini glass. Decorate with a curl of lemon zest.
Know-how
When melting chocolate there are two basic rules to avoid it seizing (becoming thick, gritty and unworkable): don't overheat it and don't let water get into the chocolate bowl. Either melt chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over (not in) a pan of simmering water or give it 20-second blasts in the microwave, stirring between each one to re-distribute the heat.
