In 1954, in Salzburg, the hometown of Mozart, a musical prodigy, Mozart Distillerie, famous for producing chocolate wine, was born, emphasizing that the products are made of natural raw materials, do not mix with any artificial spices and additives, and the fusion of various raw materials is the concept of making music, is a bottle of chocolate wine composed of Mozart's music... How? Cows can listen to music, chocolate can't?
The classification of cocoa and chocolate liquor often confuses beginners, because the original wine recipe usually labels Creme de cacao or Cacao Liqueur, preceded by the type used in the filling, the first dark brown label Dark (Brown), Chinese called black, brown or dark cocoa; the second wine transparent as water label Blanc (White), Chinese called white cocoa.
Many cocoa liquors are one or two of the big liqueur brands, and the distillery does not manage a single item, but the Mozart distillery specializes in chocolate liquor, which is made with vanilla, caramel, and then briefly dipped (and blessed by musical prodigies), and the taste is more subtle than the average cocoa dessert wine, and it is more suitable for direct drinking or ultra-simple preparation.
Ultra Simple Drinking Method: Mozart chocolate wine is drunk with ice, when dessert wine is pure drink is very delicious, others such as adding fresh milk, coffee, or drizzling on ice cream to add flavor are all good ways to drink.

Half & Half
Dairy products are often used in dessert cocktails, such as whipped cream (plant and animal), fresh milk, cream balls, etc. Some recipes will label Half & Half, what does this mean?
Whipped cream is too thick to shake evenly, fresh milk taste is too thin, Half & Half is to combine half of the whipped cream and half of the fresh milk, while retaining the richness of the former and the freshness of the latter because white Mozart and golden Mozart contain fresh cream, if you encounter a recipe that needs dairy products, the choice of fresh milk is equivalent to ready-made Half & Half, which is why beginners are recommended to give priority to Mozart.

Brandy Alexander Brandy Alexander
The preparation of Alexander with gin, cocoa and whipped cream oil first appeared in Ainsling's writings, and then...

Alexander and the Lobster Palace
According to etymology, Barry Popik, he believes that Alexander's birthplace was Rector's in New York. It is a lobster palace housed in front of Prohibition.
▲ Lobster Palace
At that time, it occurred to the thought that men and women who were deaf and blind in New York had to take the train to go, but the smoke of the coal mine-powered train always made the passengers dirty, the handsome men could not get up, the women were anti-black, and the railway company Lackey had a large number of anthracite coal mines, so it forced this point to attract passengers... We will never stain your clothes!
The railway company found an advertiser to sell its own railway, and they created a fictional character called Phoebe Snow, setting her character as a socialite who often traveled from place to place on the railway, always wearing white clothes and white shoes and holding a white umbrella, and gracefully enjoying the various facilities and services on the train...
Snow Phoebe became so popular that the great ladies who traveled to and from Rector saw her every day, and the bartender of the restaurant, Troy Alexander, created a glass of wine to pay tribute to the white mascot, and then named it after himself... Actually not with Phoebe Snow I said Troy are you a little too?
