Fru'Choc'Tail

The South Australians are very proud of their infamous candy, FruChocs i.e. fruit chocolates. The fruit tends to be peaches, apricots, strawberries and raspberries. Well, one So. Aussie bartender created a FruChoc’Tail at Belinda and I had to try it. The entire process was unreal. The bartender used some unusual ingredients for the base and then loaded the top with crushed ice. He poured “Ice Magic” chocolate model over the top which dripped down the side of the glass and put some FruChoc pieces on top. I have to say that I enjoyed eating the chocolate on top moreso than the actual drink.

Well, here’s the recipe. Give it a go. If you want the FruChoc candy pieces then send me your address and I will send them to you in the mail. I can only afford to send it to three people so the first three will get a bag. Email me your address to cindylafranchi@yahoo.com.

Enjoy!!!!!
