Finding new wines for the wine lover is challenge number one. Finding new wines that taste great and are priced for every-day consumption is an even greater challenge. The Yogev line of Israeli wines has been providing wine lovers with quality wines that are priced for weeknight meals and not only special occasions.
2 questions- is the coffee brewed or the powder and what can you substitute for the rum? I can’t find any kosher for pesach thanks!
I use brewed coffee. You can use instant coffee dissolved in water so just take 2 teaspoons instant coffee granules and mix it with 6 ounces of hot water. Use 2 tablespoons in the recipe and drink the rest
You can omit the rum or substitute it with any liqueour of your choice that is kosher for passover or use a fruit jelly, like raspberry or orange for a little fruit flavor in the chocolate.
