July 7th, 2025 marks World Chocolate Day, a global celebration of one of life’s most beloved indulgences. At Holistic Spirits Co., we’re elevating the occasion with a luxurious, wellness-inspired pairing: our Origen × Malk Espresso Martini and a curated chocolate flight from two powerhouse B-Corp brands — Divine Chocolate and Tony’s Chocolonely.
This celebration isn’t just about taste. It’s about purpose. Ethical sourcing, wellness-forward ingredients, and intentional indulgence — all in one decadent moment.
☕ The Origen × Malk Espresso Martini
This is your new favorite mindful cocktail: smooth, creamy, and naturally frothy thanks to Malk’s almond milk and Origen’s botanical depth.
Recipe
- 2 oz Origen Holistic Spirits Vodka
- 0.75 oz coffee liqueur (we love Griffo Cold Brew Coffee Liquor)
- 0.5 - 0.75 oz pure maple syrup (to taste)
- 2 oz Malk Almond Milk (Plain or Vanilla)
- Optional: Add cold brew for a bolder coffee flavor or switch it with the coffee liquor for a lower ABV cocktail
- Garnish: Grated nutmeg or 3 drops Angostura bitters + coffee beans
Add ingredients and ice to a shaker and shake well for a lasting froth. Adjust ingredients to suit your preference.

🍫 Dark Milk Pretzel Toffee (42%)
A complex balance of creamy chocolate, salted pretzel, and toffee that echoes the cocktail’s layered depth and texture.
🍫 Milk Chocolate with Chocolate Chip Cookie
Nostalgic and indulgent, this bar plays beautifully off the almond-milk creaminess and velvety froth of the martini.
🍽️ How to Serve:
Create a tasting board with mini squares of each chocolate, encouraging guests to sip, savor, and compare. Here’s a suggested tasting flow:
- Start light: 70% Dark Raspberry for brightness
- Add crunch: Divine Toffee & Sea Salt to play with maple richness
- Turn creamy: Tony’s Pretzel Toffee to amplify spice and froth
- Finish soft: Milk Chocolate Cookie for a warm, dessert-like close
Pro Tip: Add 3 drops of Angostura bitters to the cocktail when pairing with toffee-rich chocolates — it enhances spice and complexity.
