Italian Cadillac

Yes, this is a departure from the Italian Cadillac made with chocolate liquer, galliano, kahlua, and milk. Instead, this is more an Italian twist on the classic margarita. I enjoyed this cocktail poolside at the Loews Portofino in Orlando. One sip whisks me away to the sunshine and fun we had in Orlando.
