Red wine AND chocolate? What could be better?
If you like sipping on a glass of red wine and indulging in the occasional chocolate milkshake, you’ll adore this dessert which doubles as a drink! Inspired by the cherry and berry aromas in the Two Oceans Sauvignon Merlot, food blogger Carey Boucher-Erasmus of Bits of Carey( bitsofcarey.co.za) decided to make her own decadent treat incorporating those luscious flavours. The result? A Black Forest milkshake with a gorgeously grown-up twist. This quick recipe is perfect for sundowners, requires minimum ingredients and is super easy to follow. Enjoy!
