Buzz Ballz Choco

Choco is a ready-to-drink offering from BUZZ BALLZ. As the name suggests, it sits in the chocolate-flavored corner of the RTD category. The details we have don't list an ABV, a base spirit or a tasting profile, so check the label for strength and ingredients. Chocolate RTDs usually run sweet and creamy, with cocoa and milk-chocolate notes and a dessert-like finish. Expect that general profile here, not a measured one. Serve it cold. Chilling keeps sweet, cocoa-forward drinks from turning heavy or syrupy. Give the container a good shake first, because cream- and chocolate-style drinks can settle. Pour it straight from the fridge, or over a few ice cubes if you want it more diluted and slower to drink. Because the drink is already mixed, it needs no added mixers. If you want to adjust it, a splash of cold milk softens the sweetness, and a pinch of sea salt or a dusting of cocoa powder on top sharpens the chocolate. For glassware, a small rocks glass works well over ice. A short stemmed glass or a coupe suits it served neat and cold. A chilled shot or small dessert glass makes sense if you're serving it in small pours. On the food side, chocolate drinks like this tend to pair with salted nuts, pretzels, vanilla ice cream, berries, or a plain biscuit or shortbread. These foods give the sweetness something to contrast with. It can also be poured over vanilla ice cream as a quick dessert topping.
