Eisschokolade is a classic German, summertime drink. It’s basically a gussied-up chocolate milk for hot weather: chocolate milk and ice cream in a tall glass, served with a straw.
When we spent our summers in Germany, we would sometimes go to a nice Elbe-side restaurant and sit on the patio. While others would order beer, I would get this! Another version is Eiskaffee, served with cold coffee instead of chocolate milk. But this was my favourite! To add a little something special or to make it for adults, you can also add a shot of rum. Rum and chocolate is a classic combination that I first tasted in Germany too, in the form of rumballs!
Eisschokolade is best served in tall glasses, like classic diner milkshake glasses
- 1 scoop vanilla ice cream (or chocolate ice cream)
- 1-2 cups chocolate milk
- 2-3 Tbsp whipped cream
- 2-3 tsp chocolate sauce
- cherry for garnish
- Place the scoop of ice cream in a tall glass.
- Top up with the chocolate milk. It might not all fit, depending on the size of your glass.
- Add a dollop of whipped cream, and drizzle over the chocolate sauce. Top with a cherry.
- Serve with a straw on a summertime patio!
