Today is a big day. It’s Friday, which means it’s Cocktail Friday, but it also happens to be my birthday and the Friday of #MilkshakeWeek. So, yeah. Lots of things going on. As soon as I heard that milkshake week was happening, I knew I wanted to post something with coffee, chocolate and a bit of booze.

It is my birthday, after all.

This idea started because I have a total thing for chocolate covered espresso beans. They’re so unbelievably addictive and I tend to go a little nuts with them. They’re like candy, but pack a serious caffeine punch…obviously. I thought they would be awesome blended up in a milkshake made from my favorite cold brew coffee, super fudgey ice cream and a splash of Kahlua. This milkshake is everything I was hoping it would be. Caffeinated and super chocolatey!
