What sort of drink pairs well with chocolate?
Do Riesling wines go well with all desserts? What's the best sort of mixed drink that would go well with cheesecake?

A good meal or dessert can be made even better with the right beverage pairing.
A classy drink to enjoy your chocolate is wine, with red wine and port being your best options. If you’re going for dark chocolate, try a zinfandel or cabernet sauvignon with their slightly bitter nuances. A dessert wine can complement milk chocolate, but also try a red wine like Merlot or Pinot Noir. If you’re more inclined to enjoy beer with your chocolate, stick to a stout, barley wine, or Pilsner.
For other desserts, THE NIBBLE has a great chart of desserts and what wines go well with them, including Riesling, at http://www.thenibble.com/reviews/main/wine/dessert-pairings.asp.
Some people like to drink a Black Russian (vodka and Kahlua) with their cheesecake, while others like anything with coffee liquor or sometimes Bailey’s liquor.
