Choc of the new: Easter cocktails


ETM Easter cocktailsIf you like chocolate, you should head down to ETM Group’s bars around London where the Easter Bunny has left a boozy treat.

Three alcoholic dessert-inspired drinks (pictured top) are available in hollow chocolate Easter egg: a tangy Raspberry Brûlée, a creamy Tiramisu and a Passionfruit and Vanilla Martini.

Priced at £10 for all three, the Easter Egg Choctails are available until April 21 at One Canada Square in Canary Wharf, The Botanist in Sloane Square and Chiswell Street Dining Rooms in the City.

Auchentoshan Three Wood Hot Chocolate

For an alternative to Easter eggs, the Auchentoshan whisky team have come up with a creamy chocolate cocktail for Easter.

The Auchentoshan Three Wood Spanish Hot Chocolate (pictured above) mixes the single malt with milk and hot chocolate powder, enhancing the subtle notes of hazelnut and raisin present in the whisky.
