Absolut Rush reminds me a little of one of the earliest cocktails I ever learned to make; the White Russian. This is quite the variation with a chocolate orange twist. It might remind you of the chocolate orange candies that appear around holiday time. The kind you tap and they fall apart like a segmented orange. Mmm…delish! Now that’s a candy rush, but this time the flavor can be enjoyed in liquid form. Cheers!

Place all liquids in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake to blend and chill. Strain into a rocks glass over fresh ice. This drink could also be served strained into a chilled cocktail glass if you prefer. Garnish with a light dusting of cocoa or chocolate power for an extra layer of decadence.
