Refresh yourself
I ignore the grey wet window. I ignore the bent tree and the umbrella trimmed strees. At home, the eternal summer tempers itself at 25ºC and away from the cold’s chastity, the blog refreshes itself with chocolate, coffee and Coca-Cola.
“Refresh yourself.”
(Coca-Cola slogan, 1924)
Iced chocolate with Coca-Cola
Serves 4-6:
120 g 55% dark chocolate, finely chopped.
500 ml whole milk
30 g icing sugar
150 ml coffee
12 ice cubes
300 ml Coca-Cola, chilled
4-6 scoops vanilla ice-cream
Bring the milk to boil with the sugar.
Add the chocolate and combine until it boils again.
Remove from heat and add the coffee.
Let it cool down and reserve in the fridge.
Place the ice-cubes into the glasses.
Add the Coca-Cola to the chocolate and mix.
Pour this mixture into the glasses and top with an ice-cream scoop.

A pinch of vanilla, eggs, sugar and cocoa... Unmeasured words, seasoned silences... stir all that I am and set aside in bain marie...

that looks and sounds really good.
I’d drink that…but I’d add a couple of shots of Kahlua.
Is there intentional subliminal advertising in this post, or just my mind that sees the image of a woman’s butt in short-shorts on the glass in the first photo?
oooh! Now I want the weather to warm up a LOT mmmm
Pass me a straw. It looks like a 50′s float. Love it!!

It’s like an ice-cream float on steroids. My great uncle, who loved ice cream and Pepsi (!!! – we are in N.C., afterall) would have adored this.
I’m so saving this recipe for the summer!! Thanks. xoxo
