When it comes to Easter cocktails, here’s a drink that’s Instagram worthy, tasty and only two ingredients. Just like the Easter bunny… THEY do exist.
Which is why these adult chocolate bunnies are an egg-cellent idea! They’re super easy and you can make them kid friendly too. So let’s “hop” to it shall we?
The Secret Ingredient For Easter Cocktails
The secret to a good cocktail is a high quality ingredient. Which is why I always turn to the premium liquor – Jackson Morgan! It’s tasty mixed or neat. Delicious hot or cold. You can appease any crowd with their array of flavors. And shoot! You can even put it in a cake. For this occasion, we went with peppermint.
Mastering The Perfect Chocolate Bunny
As for the presentation, you can’t use just ANY chocolate bunny. Oh no! I spent HOURS searching for the perfect, hollow vessel, that looks classy {AKA not cartoonish}, tastes good, just the right size and available at your local grocer/drug store! I went as far as having an assortment of different chocolate bunnies shipped to my house, from multiple companies.
So take my word for it. These are the best edible rabbits in all the land. Pro Tip: we popped the eyes and ribbon off to make them more classic.
Chocolate Bunny Cocktail Recipe
INGREDIENTS
- Jackson Morgan Whiskey Liquor in Peppermint Mocha {Note: any of their flavors will do!}
- Hallow chocolate bunnies (you can use anyone’s you like but we found these to be PERFECT – just popped off the eyes!)

- Festive paper straws
DIRECTIONS
- Dip a sharp knife in boiling water for 30 seconds
- With your hot knife, cut the ears off of the chocolate bunnies {keep dipping your knife in the boiling water as needed}
- Eat the ears {you deserve it!}

- Garnish with mint leaves, edible flowers {I get mine from Whole Foods} and straw
As always, please sip and eat your Easter cocktails responsibly!
