Orgasm
A decadent, creamy cocktail that serves perfectly as an after-dinner treat. This rich blend combines the nuttiness of Amaretto with chocolate and citrus notes, all smoothed out by light cream and fortified with vodka.
What it tastes like
The drink leads with aromas of marzipan and citrus oil. On the palate, the texture is creamy and viscous, blending flavors of milk chocolate and sweet orange. The finish is smooth and sugary with a lingering almond note.

- White Creme de CacaoDark Creme de Cacao — This change results in a brown-colored drink and a more pronounced roasted chocolate flavor.
- Light CreamHalf and half — Using half and half creates a thicker, richer mouthfeel due to the higher fat content.
