How to make:

  1. Select and pre-chill a Coupe glass.
  2. RIM glass with chocolate – use a microwave or bain marie to melt a few squares of dark chocolate in a saucer and then and dip the rim of the glass into the melted chocolate.
  3. Prepare garnish of grated chocolate and skewered Cadbury Creme Egg half. (It's easier to cut the chocolate egg when straight from the refrigerator.) Spear the egg with a metal cocktail stick that has been heated in hot water.
  4. SHAKE all ingredients with ice.
  5. FINE STRAIN into chilled glass.
  6. Garnish with chocolate grated over cocktail and skewered Creme Egg.

As befits the name, this chocolate and vanilla vodka-based Easter Egg of a cocktail has both cream and egg – the later in the form of Dutch advocaat.

This is (quite clearly) an over the top cocktail for Easter, and that is most of the point. I liked the cocktail+chocolate combo but the cocktail on its own fell a little flat. I think I was expecting something thicker with how dessert centric this was, I would probably make it next time with a cocktail heavier on the advocaat to add more body.

Is there a substitute for the advocaat? I can't find it here

Any type of egg liquor will do. I dont have advocaat, Walcher Bombardino works just as well

Advocaat isn't that hard to make. Egg yolk, sugar and some neutral spirit; vodka or genever/gin. Stir really good until it is creamy.
