When you're in the mood to try out something different from the usual, it's time to indulge in some delicious chocolate liqueur. Adding this versatile drink to your home bar can help you create exotic dessert cocktails for the ideal capstone to a great evening.

Don't confuse this liqueur with chocolate liquor as the two are totally different. Chocolate liquor is a form of unsweetened baking chocolate ground to a paste. It's non-alcoholic and used in baking recipes. Chocolate liqueur, however, contains alcohol and has a smooth silky finish stemming from liquefied chocolate.

This sweet liqueur is a must-have in your liquor collection, especially if you love to create dessert-style cocktails.

Enjoy liqueur in tall drinks that contain more volume and generally have a lower alcohol content since delicious add-ins dilute the hard liquor.

Chocolate martini is a classic cocktail that uses liqueur as its base. It's as easy as mixing the liqueur, your favorite vodka and creme de cacao in a cocktail shaker with ice. Strain and serve in a martini glass, topped with chocolate shavings for dessert in a glass that'll be an instant hit with guests.

Who doesn't love the classic combination of chocolate and coffee? A mochatini brings to life this timeless blend of chocolate and coffee in spectacular fashion. You need coffee liqueur, vodka and chocolate liqueur. Shake up all ingredients with ice in a cocktail shaker, pour in a martini glass, garnish with a cherry and enjoy! For an added kick, try using chocolate chili liqueur.

Besides chocolate-flavored varieties, there are many dessert drink styles to choose from. For example, cream liqueurs contain emulsified milk fat with a blend of any type of alcohol and other flavorings such as chocolate or coffee. If you're looking for non-chocolaty dessert drinks, try a butterscotch-flavored spirit with sweet caramel notes.
