1pt Robusto Recipe

1pt Robusto
Tequila, coffee, and chocolate—sounds unlikely, yet somehow it’s magic. The infusion brings out tequila’s earthiness, wraps it in smooth chocolate, and adds the bold kick of cold brew with a touch of agave sweetness. A hint of orange keeps it bright, making every sip an adventure. This cocktail isn’t just good—it’s damn near perfect. Easy to batch, impossible to forget, and mocktail-friendly for those skipping the booze. Let it be the surprise hit of your next gathering.

STEP 1 - Easy All-Natural Infusion

Infuse Your Spirit:
Combine a 1pt Chocolate Infusion Blend Packet with 375ml of tequila in any lidded container. Let it infuse for 5-6 hours, then strain, and reserve the infused spirit for your cocktails. (No need to refrigerate - infused spirits can be stored indefinitely at room temperature)

1pt Chocolate Infusion Blend Ingredients:
Vanilla Rooibos, Cacao Shells, Marigold Petals - no sugar, gluten, dairy, nuts, additives, or preservatives

Mocktail* Version:
Substitute water or a zero-proof spirit for the alcohol in this infusion and follow the same steps. (Non-alcoholic infusions should be refrigerated and used within 30 days)
