Chocolate Jojo Ivory sits firmly in the creamy, dessert-cocktail camp: a smooth, after-dinner sipper built around liqueurs, dairy, and a touch of fruit. You’ll find it leans more toward modern, indulgent bar treats than a storied classic, with its appeal rooted in that familiar “coffee-and-cream” comfort and a chocolate accent that makes it feel like a liquid pudding.
On the palate, Bailey’s brings soft whiskey warmth and milky sweetness, while the coffee liqueur adds a darker, roasted edge that keeps things from turning cloying. A dash of chocolate syrup deepens the sweetness and reinforces the mocha-like pairing with the coffee notes. Cream stretches everything into a plush, velvety texture, and the half banana contributes a gentle, ripe fruit sweetness that rounds the liqueurs and makes the finish feel extra smooth.
Serve it when you want something soothing and rich—think dessert replacement, late-night treat, or a cozy capstone to dinner. If you like creamy coffee flavours, chocolate-leaning drinks, or banana in your sweets, this is an easy crowd-pleaser in a cocktail glass.

Ingredients
Cocktail Colin says:
Bailey’s and cream lead with a lush dairy sweetness, while coffee liqueur adds roasted depth and a gentle bitterness that keeps the palate moving; a dash of chocolate syrup thickens the cocoa note, and half a banana brings soft, ripe fruitiness through the finish. It works because the coffee liqueur reins in the creamy richness and the banana rounds the chocolate, ideal for dessert-cocktail fans and anyone craving an after-dinner, milkshake-like sip.
