Chocolate Milk
Chocolate on its own don't go well with cocktails, there are too many flavours and since cocktails are served cold the chocolates flavour is muted and it doesn't melt in the mouth.
However, it's not that chocolate doesn't pair with liquors, barrel aged spirits like whiskey and aged rum exude the natural and rich vanilla and caramel flavours that are also found in many chocolates, and thus, rich milk chocolate pairs well with aged Rum and Vodka and goes well with Bourbon as well.
However, the most revealing pairing is with Curacao, the orange liqueur and chocolate makes a killer combination.Everclear
Everclear is an American grain spirit, rather a neat rectified spirit and since it's bottled at as high as 95% purity too, it's nothing but rectified spirit. Everclear is bottled at 60%, 75.5% and 90% ABV and despite it's ban in several US states, it's ridiculously high alcohol content and a hard to put out flame when lit, has made it an iconic spirit of notorious reputation.
Some often ask if this is clear distilled grain spirit, then why is it not Vodka? It's not Vodka because Vodka never had this high alcohol content and Vodka is not this rectified, Vodka still retains some flavours of the ingredients but Everclear is almost medical grade pure alcohol.
If you are in the following states of the USA, it will be illegal for you to drink Everclear.
States that currently ban the sale of Everclear include California, Florida, Maine, Massachusetts, Hawaii, Iowa, Michigan, New York, Nevada, Ohio, Washington, North Carolina, New Hampshire and Minnesota - The Badger Herald

Blue Tick Project:We aim at manually validating and verifying each cocktail in their current context and mark them as valid, where, a blue tick would mean that the recipe has been verified and is 100% accurate while an orange tick would mean the recipe has low confidence.
Where as a grey tick would mean that the recipe has not yet been manually validated or verified recently.
