Drink of the Week for Jan 10th, 2002: Chocolate Mountain
What we had to say
Chocolate. Mountains of it. You know you want it. We'd tell you where the Chocolate Mountains are, but then we'd have to kill you. And since we love you so much, we can't do that. Instead, we're going to share this ancient recipe with you, passed down through the ages by some guy in France (or Canada... the details aren't actually too clear on this. In fact, we could have made it up yesterday, our facts are just that good).
History and inanity aside, this drink is a bit surprising. Don't be intimidated by the amount of alcohol in it, since it's actually got quite a mild taste. And delicious... did we mention delicious?
Give it a try, and just think chocolate mountains...
