A Sweet Drink For Your Special Someone
Valentine's Day might have been made by the greeting card companies, but we love any excuse to eat more chocolate. Pair it up with some whiskey and you've really got the perfect couple.
Making the chocolate infused whiskey for this recipe takes a few days, so plan accordingly. Just like any good relationship, this takes a little work (but it's worth it).

This delicious drink is a little bit sweet, a little bit smoky (thanks to the rye) and definitely sexy. A perfect aperitif to mix up for your special someone to enjoy on Valentine's Day. Allow 3 days to infuse your rye.
