Chocolate Ginger Sardinian Mojito

We are in the region of Barbara in the heart of Sardinia to be precise at the Magico Tablao Bar. In this enchanting place  belonging to the Hotel Experience Su Gologone, I am sipping my latest discovery  with some Sardinian artichokse and wild antipasti  against the breathtaking backdrop of the Supramonte mountains. My discovery is a Sardinian version of a Mohito with an added taste of dark chocolate and a twist of ginger to give me a boot after a long day under the sun.

Find the secret  recipe below or if you still can jump on a flight and be  treated while you sip it  to canti a tenores, the polyphonic Sardinian folk singing recognized by Unesco as an important aspect of the world's cultural heritage.

Cheers!
