Celebrate World Coconut Day with Mozart Coconut Chocolate Liqueur

Celebrate World Coconut Day, September 2nd with Mozart Coconut Chocolate Liqueur.

For over 65 years, the Mozart Distillery has crafted high-quality spirits in Salzburg, but in 1979, the company began specializing in chocolate liqueurs. “The idea behind the first Mozart Chocolate Liqueur was to create a liquid chocolate praline similar to the popular Mozart chocolates confectionery from Salzburg, Austria,” says Carina Planeta, Senior Brand Manager.

The unique Mozart liqueurs use natural ingredients to make its chocolate. It all starts with a base blend of cocoa from West Africa, while sugar beets bring sweetness to the intense cocoa and bourbon vanilla from Madagascar and rounds out the recipe. Depending on the liqueur, additional ingredients include cream blended with cocoa butter from The Netherlands, caramel, or Belgian dark chocolate.

“We wanted to create something so special to incorporate the spirit of Mozart: a playfully light and sensual masterpiece, something different to all other products on the market, a symphony of typical chocolate ingredients, in absolute perfection,” Carina says.

Today, all the liqueurs continue to be produced in the same Salzburg distillery and come in a variety of chocolate flavors, including milk, white, and dark chocolate. In addition to its core offerings, Mozart also nods to the seasons with flavors like strawberry, coffee, and pumpkin spice.

The just-launched Mozart Coconut Chocolate celebrates the tropics with a fun flavor reminiscent of fresh coconut. The liqueur, which is lactose-free and gluten free, is creamy with a nutty, mild taste that is sure to transport your guests to the tropics with each sip.

Carina says the new Mozart Coconut Chocolate adds another light liqueur to the collection alongside White Chocolate and “captures the vibe of summer with its flavor.” Use it to take your Piña Colada or Paloma game to the next level.

For bartenders, the rule of thumb is that if it works with chocolate, it will work with Mozart liqueurs. Take the Old Fashioned for a spin with Mozart chocolate liqueur or just add it to coffee as the finishing touch to a meal. Looking for a fun take on an Espresso Martini? The new Mozart Coffee Chocolate brings a rich decadence to a drink currently booming in popularity.

Though steeped in history, Mozart Chocolate Liqueur continues to honor not only the craftsmanship of its namesake composer but also the creativity and boundary pushing nature of his art. Explore the collection that bears his name and add a taste of his legacy to your drinks today.
