Calories: 361kcal
Ingredients
- 13.5 oz coconut milk (1 can)
- 3.5 oz (1 1/2 bars) bittersweet dark chocolate, I used 71% cocoa
- 15 oz (1 can) coconut cream
- 14 oz (1 can) condensed milk
- 1/2 cup evaporated milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 cups light rum
Instructions
- Break chocolate into medium pieces and place in a bowl.
- In a small sauce pan, warm up coconut milk. Once hot, pour over the chocolate and mix well until chocolate has melted and combined with the coconut milk.
- In a blender, combine chocolate mixture, coconut cream, condensed milk and evaporated milk.
- Add the vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg.
- Finally, add the rum. Blend until all is well combined.
- Pour into glass bottles, seal well and refrigerate.
- Serve cold in small drink glasses and garnish with a sprinkle of shaved chocolate. Shake well before serving.
Notes
- The drink will become very thick once it gets cold. Let it sit out for about 15 minutes to thin out before serving.
- If you have a smaller blender you may need to make this in two batches.
- Use canned coconut rather than one in a carton. It's much thicker and creamier.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for about 1-2 weeks.
