Well, I think they may have had one to many of these themselves in the Divine press office because this Valentine's Day cocktail landed in my inbox this morning, a day late, but it sounds too fabulous not to share it with you !

Divine Chocolate, the farmer owned chocolate company, and Foundation Bar in Covent Garden have joined forces to create the ultimate indulgence this Valentine's Day. The cocktail based on Divine's Milk Chocolate with Toffee and Sea Salt is a delicious combination of chocolate, vodka and toffee liquor.
The Dangerously Divine cocktail featured on last weekend’s Sunday Brunch TV show with presenter Tim Lovejoy’s exclaiming: “This is my favourite cocktail!”
David Kay, Head Mixologist at Foundation Bar, who created the cocktail, assures that the drink is surprisingly refreshing. “This is the ultimate in Valentine’s treats – boozy, fresh and dangerously chocolatey. It’s surprisingly light – chocolate is the perfect accompaniment to a romantic Valentine’s night.”
