Made with Dutch Cacao, forgot the sugar syrup, and despite generally having a sweet tooth I found I wouldn't want it any sweeter.
Nicely clean and chocolatey.

This tastes just like the orange-flavoured option in a packet/tube of the sweets/candies called "Smarties", as I recall from a few decades back. As such, I would think it might appeal to folks who have just reached drinking age and still relish the flavours of their childhood years. Definitely a charmer, and full of nostalgia for this drinker!

I don't remember colour leaching from Smarties as being an issue. I guess depends on how quickly you drink and if too slow then the cocktail will also be too warm.
