Accent your drink with a chocolate truffle

Enric Rovira Chocolates has a line of chocolate drink accents that are designed to perch on the rim of a cocktail or a glass of champagne, providing and indulgent touch to the drink. The accents are very dark chocolate truffles (70% cacao) with carefully carved notches that are the width of the average champagne glass. They were originally intended to complement cava, a Catalonian sparkling wine, but will work with other sparkling wines, liqueurs or chocolate cocktails. The accents would be a beautiful touch at the end of a romantic dinner for two and would definitely make a splash at a New Year's Eve party!

Imported from Spain, these chocolates are sold at Dean and Deluca for $25 per box (20 pieces), but you can probably make up some yourself by carefully cutting a small slit into regular, cocoa-coated chocolate truffles. Just make sure to knock the excess cocoa off first to prevent any loose cocoa from falling into your cocktail.

Tip of the Day

When cooking apples, save your apple cores and peels. Boil them for a half hour, simmer them, and save them for the next apple pie!
