You need to give this Kinder Bueno-flavoured Black Velvet cocktail recipe a go!

This creative gin and beer cocktail recipe is a fun twist on the classic Black Velvet. Pairing London dry gin with prosecco and a chocolate and hazelnut-flavoured milk stout recommended to the Craft Gin Club team by Brewser, this cocktail is rich and complex yet light and bubbly in all the right places.

And if you’re a chocolate bar fan, you definitely won’t want to miss this one - it tastes just like a grown-up Kinder Bueno!

Give it a go…

Traditionally, the Black Velvet cocktail recipe is a simple mix of Guinness and champagne.

For our version, we have added gin and swapped the champagne for prosecco. The Guinness is then replaced by UnBarred Bueno Shake Chocolate & Hazelnut Milk Stout, which has been sent to us by the craft beer aficionados at Brewser.

Beer fans, if you haven’t heard of Brewser yet then you need to check them out - they are the UK's top-rated beer club!

Their stout recommendation for this cocktail is simply sublime and it works so well with London dry gin and prosecco.

What’s more, the Kinder Bueno Black Velvet is an incredibly easy beer cocktail recipe to make at home. All you have to do is pour the gin and stout into a champagne flute and top up with the sparkling wine.

UnBarred Bueno Shake Chocolate & Hazelnut Milk Stout has a mouthwatering array of creamy chocolate, hazelnut and coffee tones that work so well with the complex juniper-forward profile of a good craft London dry gin.

The prosecco then elevates the whole experience with its delicate bubbles, turning what could be a heavy, fudgy drinking experience into one that is as light as the most airy chocolate mousse.

When this unlikely trio of ingredients is combined, you are left with a sophisticated cocktail that is also really fun.

We can’t wait for you to give it a try - it’s a great way to bring the beer and gin fans in your house together!
