That's really good!
The cassis and lime combine very well (are they paired elsewhere?) with the tequila quite subtle.
I poured 10ml of dark cacao (clumsy) and it still felt slightly under -choc'd, so at half time I added some chocolate bitt but think I'd go to 15ml next time.
And there will be a next time.

Great alternative tequila cocktail. Did find it a bit on the sweet side for us, so we added a few drops of Difford's Margarita Bitters and it was much better.

Really very good. You can add more Creme de Cacoa to Punch up the chocolate. ?

I would just add some chocolate bitters if that's you're goal
