A little history:
Creme de cacao, a sweet liqueur with a distinct chocolate flavor, has a rich history dating back to the 19th century. The origins of creme de cacao are often associated with the chocolate-making traditions of the European cocoa-producing regions. The liqueur was initially crafted to utilize the surplus or by-products of chocolate production.
It is believed that creme de cacao gained popularity in the early 20th century, particularly during the Prohibition era in the United States when creative mixologists sought ways to mask the harsh taste of bootlegged spirits. The sweet and chocolatey notes of creme de cacao made it an ideal ingredient for crafting cocktails that could appeal to a wider audience.
Over time, creme de cacao became a staple in classic and contemporary cocktail recipes, adding a decadent touch to drinks like the Brandy Alexander, Grasshopper, and, of course, the Chocolate Covered Strawberry Daiquiri. Its versatility and ability to contribute a velvety chocolate essence to various libations have solidified creme de cacao’s place in the world of mixology, making it a beloved ingredient in countless cocktail creations.
