Our final cocktail recipe is provided by our friends at Humboldt Distillery. We’ve taste-tested their product and it’s incredible!
Humboldt Distillery, Northern California’s original micro-distillery producing a line-up of gluten-free and non-GMO, craft spirits – has created an indulgent libation perfect for Valentine’s Day; a decadent dessert in a glass. Humboldt Distillery’s Organic Vodka, smooth with flashes of sweetness, is complemented by small-batch, bean to bar Dick Taylor Craft Chocolate and high-quality milk from a local Humboldt County farm. They kept the recipe easy (so more time to spend with your loved ones) and let the flavors of the ingredients speak for themselves.
