This recipe for an oh-so-decadently-delicious Irish-Greek-chocolate-and-cream drink was part of an article on ouzo in the October 2005 issue of cooking magazine 'Australian Good Taste'. The article was called 'Greece Lightning' and begins: A potent Greek spirit that has the ability to turn cloudy, ouzo can have the same effect on you - so take care not to overindulge in our delicious drinks, dessert or dressing. A cocktail? Well the ingredients suggest that but the photograph showed Chocolate Bullets served in two tall smoothie-style glasses. This is clearly not a drink for the faint-hearted. I've listed this as serving 2, but I think it could also be served in 4 cocktail glasses. The original recipe specified chocolate topping as the fourth ingredient; ever with a mind of its own, Zaar converted this to chocolate fudge topping , which would I imagine be sweeter. BTW, if you're using metric measurements, 1 cup = 250 ml. Ingredients:
1 cup thickened cream |
1/2 cup baileys irish cream, original irish cream liqueur |
1/2 cup ouzo |
1 tablespoon chocolate fudge topping |
2 cups ice cubes |
whipped cream, to serve |
grated dark chocolate, to serve |
Directions:
1. Place the cream, Baileys, ouzo, chocolate topping and ice cubes in the jug of a blender and blend until well-combined and the ice is crushed. 2. Pour the Baileys-ouzo mixture into serving glasses, top with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle of chocolate, and serve immediately. |
