Newsflash cocktail enthusiasts: a chocolate concoction doesn't have to be creamy, jean-busting fluff. A hefty dessert drink can put a damper on early New Year’s Eve resolutions, but in time for the crisp, autumn season master mixologist Eryn Reece created Harvest Leaves in New York City, a tantalizing concoction that features one of our favorite sweet treats! The Harvest Leaves highlights smooth, chocolate-infused vodka, along with spicy ginger liqueur, a splash of bubbly, and even peppery rum. Harvest Leaves includes warm notes of cloves, cinnamon, and nutmeg with a hint of melting Godiva, ensuring a powerful kick to taste buds. Best of all, it’s a welcoming alternative to pricey champagne for weekend celebrations. Don’t give up on taste just to get fit for the New Year. Instead, savor one of the coolest cocktails of the season.
