Great cocktail. The hint of chocolate was a perfect touch and the cocoa powder dusting adding a nice dry hint of chocolate with each sip. cocoa powder must be sifted on as it will clump if you do not sift.

Great drink! Indeed it's just a Daiquiri with a hint of chocolate. Personally, I loved the cocoa powder dusting, felt like the chocolate flavour really added something substantial to the final product.

Cocktail was ok but garnish was a disaster chocolat powder settled on the top in a slick and overpowered the drink as well ass making look unpleasant
would use fine chocolate shavings next time for look and taste

The chocolate dusting needs to be very light and is best applied using a coffee shop-style dredger. The lightest tap while upturned rather than a shake.
