Directions
1.
Using 4 chilled martini glasses, rub the rims of martini glasses with a wedge of orange or lime. Place sugar in a shallow dish; place cocoa powder in another shallow dish. Invert glasses and dip in sugar and then in cocoa powder to coat rims. Divide ice cream equally among martini glasses.
2.
In a small pitcher combine chocolate milk, vanilla and, if you like, peppermint extract. Pour over ice cream. Top with chocolate curls and cherries. Makes 4 servings.

Chocolate-Coffee Milkshake Cocktail
Prepare as above except, use 2/3 cup chocolate milk and 1/2 cup freshly-brewed strong, cold coffee. If you like, substitute coffee ice cream for chocolate ice cream. Omit peppermint extract or almond extract.
