update – I made it by now but it came out too bitter =and= too thin consistency.
Furthermore, the chopped pieces – which i’d chopped in the food processor – barely melted, leaving itsie-bitsies of bitter choco interspersed throughout.
After pouring the mix into the pie-shell i tried remedying it with about 3 tablespoons of Confectionary Sugar, but it’s still bitter.

I guess i should have
(1) poured it into the shell much sooner.
(2) added a minimum of 4 TB granulated sugar into the juice-milk mix.
(3) added some cornstarch to the juice-milk mix to help thicken it.
(4) used a =can= of coconut milk – rather than the lime-green Gefen cardboard litre. That milk might have been creamier.

I don’t think i’ll ever bother with that again. The bitter chocolate caused my back to constrict and cramp up. Severely painful. I think Matbucha helps counteract that, interestingly.

By the way, I used Mekor blackberry juice. Now =that= is yummy, much more palatable than pom juice.
