Recipe: Chocolatini Cocktail

Create a stir with our Chocolatini

Chocolatini cocktail in a walnut-rimmed glass dusted with dark chocolate flakes

This drink has a secret ingredient: walnuts. Walnuts are chock full of nutrients and a rich source of protein. You’ll get about 90% of your recommended daily intake of omega-3 fatty acids just by eating 1 ounce (¼ cup) of walnuts. Omega-3 fatty acids promote heart and joint health, and aid memory. Walnuts are packed with key vitamins and minerals and are the most heart-healthy nut of all.
