Memoirs: Favorite alcoholic beverages

by Alexis Gibbons

Created on: March 06, 2007   Last Updated: May 04, 2007

A dark 'n dirty. Intrigued? Well, if you like chocolate and coffee, then you will love this shot. It's an equal mixture of Vincent Van Gogh Dark Chocolate vodka and Kahlua. If you desire it to be a little creamier, then add a touch of milk. Shake it all up with some ice and trickle it into a shot glass. Chug away and enjoy this smooth liquid piece of heaven.

I first was introduced to a dark 'n dirty when I was home this past Thanksgiving. I went to a client's party, where they were, aside from drinking heavily, mixing up a variety of different drinks I had never heard of before. Of course I couldn't resist trying something new. They placed a shot glass in front of me with dark liquid filled to the brim. I took a quick sip and instantly fell in love. I went on to ingest 4 or 5 more of them throughout the night. Yes, I was suitably intoxicated and couldn't stop gushing over this amazing beverage.

Ever since I have been pushing this shot onto all my friends. VVG is not a very well known brand of vodka, but I insist you hunt it down. They also have several other flavored vodkas other than dark chocolate, under their label. I hope you get the opportunity to try this shot for yourself. It's unique and undeniably scrumptious.
