Chocolate Valentine's Day Cocktails

If the usual Valentine's Day treats aren't your (for lack of better expression) box of chocolates, then why not get your Valentine's Day chocolate fix in the form of a cocktail? I am loving these decadent recipes by Van Gogh Vodka and Patrón. Serve them at a festive Valentine's Day party, or have romantic cocktails for two with your special someone. Cheers!

2 oz. Van Gogh Dutch Chocolate Vodka
