This chess-themed cocktail is a strong balance of smooth tequila, coffee and chocolate. It’s no drink for a rook(ie). It’ll have you moving left, right, and maybe diagonal. Treat yourself like a king (or queen) and end the knight with this finishing move… ♟️CHECKMATE 👑

Editor's Note
Espresso and reposado tequila meet in this spiced, dessert-forward sipper. Chai bitters add a complex aromatic layer that cuts through the richness of the crème de cacao.
