Dark Side Recipe Information

Yet another boring night at a friend's house, Mickey P had some unusual ingredients this time. As usual after some experimentation, he had put together a decent drink, and prompted Pablito Enorme to try it out and name it. The syrup tends to coat the throat and anything else it touches, leaving the alcohol to burn, but smells like a chocolatey girly-drink. When properly put down, however, this seemingly weak shot reveals its Dark Side.
