As the days grow longer and the temperature rises, our cravings shift towards refreshing beverages and delightful treats.

At Prestat, we believe that summer is the perfect time to explore the exquisite pairing of our finest chocolates with your favourite summer cocktails.

Whether you're hosting a garden party, relaxing by the pool, or enjoying a quiet evening on the patio, these pairings promise to elevate your summer experience to new heights.

The Art of Pairing Chocolate and Cocktails

Pairing chocolate with cocktails is a delicate art that balances flavours, textures, and aromas.

The rich, complex notes of chocolate can beautifully complement and enhance the crisp, refreshing qualities of summer cocktails.

Here are some delightful combinations featuring Prestat’s premium chocolates:

Lemon Mojito & Prestat's Sea Salt Caramel Truffles

A classic summer cocktail, the Lemon Mojito, with its tangy and refreshing blend of lemon, mint, and rum, pairs exceptionally well with the creamy, slightly salty taste of our Sea Salt Caramel Truffles. The sweet caramel centre, infused with a hint of sea salt, creates a perfect harmony with the citrusy zing of the mojito, offering a tantalising contrast that leaves a lasting impression.

Prosecco & Prestat's Raspberry and Elderflower White Chocolate

The light, bubbly nature of Prosecco pairs wonderfully with our Raspberry and Elderflower White Chocolate.

The subtle sweetness and floral notes of the elderflower, combined with the tartness of raspberry, complement the crisp, fruity flavours of Prosecco, creating a refreshing and elegant pairing perfect for summer celebrations.

Whiskey Sour & Prestat's Milk Chocolate Bergamot and Earl Grey

The bold, citrusy flavours of a Whiskey Sour, made with whiskey, lemon juice, and a touch of sugar, pair exceptionally well with our Milk Chocolate Bergamot and Earl Grey.

The bergamot’s citrusy aroma and the subtle tea notes in the chocolate enhance the cocktail’s flavours, adding a layer of complexity and richness to this classic drink.

Aperol Spritz & Prestat's Milk Chocolate Blood Orange and Neroli

The vibrant and refreshing Aperol Spritz, with its blend of Aperol, Prosecco, and soda water, pairs beautifully with our Milk Chocolate Blood Orange and Neroli.

The blood orange’s sweet and tangy flavour complements the Aperol’s bitter orange notes, while the neroli’s floral aroma adds an exotic twist, making this pairing a delightful and sophisticated summer treat.

Negroni & Prestat's Milk Chocolate Blood Orange and Neroli

The bold, bittersweet Negroni, made with gin, vermouth, and Campari, finds a perfect companion in our Milk Chocolate Blood Orange and Neroli. The chocolate’s rich, creamy texture and the citrusy, floral notes of blood orange and neroli enhance the cocktail’s complex flavours, creating a balanced and indulgent pairing that’s perfect for a summer evening.

Tips for a Perfect Pairing Experience

  1. Balance is Key: Ensure that neither the chocolate nor the cocktail overwhelms the other. The flavours should complement and enhance each other.
  2. Consider the Texture: Match the texture of the chocolate with the cocktail. Creamy chocolates pair well with smooth cocktails, while crunchy chocolates can add an interesting contrast to fizzy drinks.
  3. Experiment and Have Fun: Don’t be afraid to try new combinations and discover your personal favourites. The best pairings often come from a bit of creative experimentation.

This summer, indulge in the luxurious combination of Prestat chocolates and refreshing cocktails. Whether you're looking to impress your guests or treat yourself, these pairings are sure to create unforgettable moments.
