History

Dessert by name, this cocktail is naughty but nice.

This drink is adapted from a recipe created in 2002 at Hush Restaurant in London, England. Notably, Hush's original Black Forest Gâteau recipe omitted kirsch, cherries, and chocolate. Consequently, the revised recipe presented here was created on 28th March 2022. Hush's original Black Forest Gâteau recipe: 60ml (2oz) Vodka 22.5ml (¾oz) Chambord liqueur 22.5ml (¾oz) Crème de fraise 7.5ml (¼ oz) Crème de cassis 22.5 (¾oz) Cream
