Chocolate Coconut Rum Cocktail
A sweet, indulgent Caribbean-inspired drink, this chocolate coconut rum cocktail is perfect for chocolate and coconut lovers alike!
Ingredients
Ganache
- ¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ¼ cup heavy whipping cream
Cocktail
- 5 oz. milk 2% or whole for ultimate creaminess
- 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
- 1-2 oz. Malibu coconut rum can substitute coconut syrup
- 1-2 oz. Brugal rum or a dark rum like Meyer's
Toppings:
- 2 tablespoons whipped cream
- 1 tablespoon toasted coconut
- 1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips or chocolate shavings
Instructions
Ganache (Optional)
- Heat heavy cream in the microwave or on the stovetop until just before boiling.
- Pour cream over chocolate chips in an open bowl (so that there is room to dip the glass in).
- Allow the mixture to sit for a few minutes so that the chocolate can begin melting.
- Stir or whisk until the mixture is a smooth ganache.
- Dip the rim of the glass into the mixture. Tap the glass gently to encourage the ganache to drip down the sides.
Cocktail
- Stir together milk and chocolate syrup in the prepared glass.
- Add coconut rum and dark rum and stir. Leave enough room for ice if desired.
- Add ice to the glass (optional). Top with whipped cream, toasted coconut, and mini chocolate chips.
- Enjoy!

Notes
Nutritional information does not include ganache on rim of the glass.
Simply repeat the steps for more servings. The ganache should make enough to coat quite a few glass rims, but you can make more ganache by using a ration of 1:1 chocolate chips to heavy cream.
