Recipe: Luxury Dubai Chocolate Cocktail

Now it’s time to get to the heart of the matter! Here is the recipe for the Luxury Dubai Chocolate Cocktail, which you can easily mix at home. This cocktail is the perfect eye-catcher for your next party or a special occasion.

Ingredients (for 1 glass):

  • 40 ml chocolate liqueur (e.g. Baileys Chocolat Luxe or Mozart Chocolate Cream)

  • 20 ml dark rum (e.g. Bacardi Black or Havana Club)

  • 10 ml coffee liqueur (e.g. Kahlúa, for a deeper chocolate note)

  • 10 ml condensed milk (for the pistachio macadamia cream)

  • 20 ml condensed milk (for the cocktail itself)

  • 30 ml whole milk (for the base of the cocktail)

  • 5 g pistachio kernels (peeled and finely ground)

  • 5 g macadamia nuts (peeled, lightly caramelized, and finely chopped)

  • 1 date (pitted and finely chopped, for sweetness)

  • 1 pinch of saffron (for an exotic flair)

  • 1 pinch of cardamom (for freshness and spice)

  • 1 pinch of cinnamon (for a warm note)

  • 1 tsp cane sugar (for the perfect sweetness)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (for the harmonious aroma)

  • edible gold dust (for decoration)

  • ice cubes

Preparation:

  1. Preparation:

    1. Prepare the glass:
      Dip the rim of the cocktail glass in some vanilla extract and then roll it in finely ground pistachios. This will give you an aesthetically pleasing and flavorful nutty glass decoration.

    2. Make pistachio macadamia cream:
      Put the ground pistachios and caramelized macadamia nuts in a blender. Add 10 ml condensed milk and blend the mixture until smooth. This cream will provide the nutty and creamy note in the cocktail.

    3. Mix the cocktail:
      Add ice cubes to a shaker. Add 40 ml chocolate liqueur, 20 ml rum, 10 ml coffee liqueur, 20 ml condensed milk, 30 ml whole milk, the prepared pistachio macadamia cream, the chopped date, cane sugar, saffron, cardamom, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Shake the shaker vigorously until the cocktail is well chilled and the ingredients are perfectly blended.

    4. Serve:
      Strain the cocktail into the prepared glass. The ice cubes and solid residue will remain in the shaker, while the cocktail will have a velvety texture.

    5. Decorate:
      Dust the surface of the cocktail with edible gold dust. For the final touch, you can add chopped pistachios or a piece of candied orange peel for decoration.

Tip: How to caramelize macadamia nuts perfectly

Caramelized macadamia nuts are a delicious ingredient that adds a special touch to your luxury Dubai chocolate cocktail. The process is easier than you might think! Here is a step-by-step guide:

Ingredients for caramelized macadamia nuts:

  • 50 g macadamia nuts (peeled and preferably unsalted)

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

  • 1 tablespoon water

  • 1 pinch of salt (optional, for a slightly contrasting note)

How to caramelize macadamia nuts:

  1. Prepare the pan:
    Use a non-stick pan so that the sugar doesn’t burn. Heat the pan over medium heat.

  2. Melt the sugar:
    Add the brown sugar and water to the pan. Stir gently until the sugar is completely melted and takes on a golden color. Make sure the heat isn’t too high so the sugar doesn’t burn.

  3. Add the nuts:
    Add the macadamia nuts to the melted sugar and stir gently until all the nuts are evenly coated with the caramel layer.

  4. Let caramelize:
    Roast the nuts for an additional 1–2 minutes to allow them to develop a slightly nutty aroma and for the caramel to stick properly. Keep moving the nuts constantly to prevent burning.

  5. Cool down:
    Remove the nuts from the pan and place them on a piece of baking paper. Spread them out so they do not stick together. Let them cool completely.

  6. Finely chop:
    Once the nuts are cool and firm, chop them into small pieces with a sharp knife. Now they are ready to be used in your cocktail!

Extra tips for perfect caramelized nuts:

  • For more flavor: Add a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon while caramelizing. This enhances the flavors of your cocktail.

  • For extra crunchiness: Sprinkle the still warm nuts with a bit of sea salt to create an exciting sweet-salty flavor.

  • Alternative sweetness: You can also use honey instead of brown sugar – just add a bit of honey to the hot pan and swirl the nuts in it.

These caramelized macadamia nuts are not only the perfect addition to your cocktail, but also make a great snack or topping for desserts. Have fun trying it out!

Cardamom in Cocktails: Which Form is Best?

For your Luxury Dubai Chocolate Cocktail, cardamom is a key element that adds an exotic and aromatic note. Here are the three most common forms of cardamom and recommendations on which is best suited:

1. Cardamom Pods (whole):

  • Characteristics: Fresh and intense, as the essential oils are contained within the seeds.

  • Usage:

    • Gently crush 1–2 cardamom pods with a knife or mortar to release the seeds.

    • Add the pods or the released seeds directly into the shaker. The flavors will be released while shaking.

    • Strain the cocktail well before serving to ensure no pieces end up in the glass.

  • Advantage: This form offers the most intense aroma and feels the freshest. Perfect for cocktails with a touch of luxury.

2. Ground Cardamom:

  • Characteristics: Convenient and ready to use, but somewhat less aromatic than fresh pods.

  • Usage:

    • Add a small pinch (about 1/8 tsp) directly into the shaker or mix it into the pistachio-macadamia cream.

    • Shake or stir well to ensure the powder is evenly distributed.

  • Tip: Choose high-quality powder, as cheaper varieties often lose flavors.

  • Advantage: Easy to dose, no straining needed, and saves you some time.

3. Cardamom Extract:

  • Characteristics: Liquid and concentrated, with a subtly aromatic flavor.

  • Usage:

    • Add 1–2 drops (no more!) directly into the shaker.

    • The extract mixes well with the other liquids.

  • Advantage: Perfect for when you want it particularly quick and evenly aromatic. Ideal for beginners.

Recommendation for the Cocktail

For an intense and fresh aroma, we recommend using cardamom pods (whole). Grinding or crushing the seeds provides an exceptionally full flavor that unfolds beautifully when shaken. However, if you want to save time, ground cardamom is a good alternative.

Dosing Tip:

Cardamom is very intense. Start with a small amount (1–2 pods or a small pinch) and carefully adjust to ensure the taste is balanced and does not overshadow other flavors.

With these options, you can bring the perfect touch of cardamom to your cocktail!

Tip for the Gold Decoration:

Edible gold powder from the baking section makes your cocktail a real eye-catcher! Just sprinkle it carefully over the finished drink – for a luxurious shine and that certain something. ✨🍸

Why this cocktail is the perfect luxury treat

The Dubai chocolate cocktail is not just a drink, but an experience. Each ingredient – from the chocolate to the pistachios to the saffron – creates a perfectly balanced flavor combination.

The addition of coffee liqueur enhances the chocolate flavors and gives the cocktail depth. The highlight is the gold dust, which gives this cocktail its luxurious finish.

This cocktail is perfect for special occasions or for a celebration with friends, where you will definitely draw all eyes to you.
