Notes
Lightly sweet with a gentle kick from ginger beer; the chocolate adds cozy richness while lime keeps it bright. Serve cold immediately to preserve the fizz. For a milder drink, swap ginger beer for ginger ale. Crushed ice or a light cream float can make it dessert-like. Use a good-quality chocolate vodka or crème de cacao for best flavor.
