For a richer flavor, use a high-quality chocolate liqueur. Adjust the amount of creme de menthe to your preference; use less for a milder mint flavor, or more for a bolder taste. If you don't have vanilla vodka, you can use regular vodka and add a few drops of vanilla extract. To make a non-alcoholic version, substitute the liqueurs and vodka with chocolate milk and mint extract, adjusting the amount to taste. For a dairy-free alternative, use coconut cream or almond milk instead of half-and-half cream. If you don't have a cocktail shaker, you can use a tightly sealed mason jar. Adjust the sweetness of this drink by using dark chocolate syrup or white chocolate syrup. Make sure you chill your glasses for at least 15 minutes before to get a perfect result.
