Notes
Ingredient Notes and Shopping Tips
Chocolate Vodka: I love the flavor of chocolate vodka, but feel free to use regular or another flavor of your choice.
Irish Cream: Even though it is cream-based it will keep for up to a year. Refrigerate after opening.
Kahlua: Store in a cool dark place such as your liquor cabinet or in a cabinet. Please note this does contain a small amount of caffeine.
Chocolate Ice Cream: Feel free to substitute your favorite flavor like fudge brownie, mint chocolate, or even cake batter.
Fun Variations
Classic: Skip the ice cream and shake the remaining ingredients in a cocktail shaker. Serve over ice for a classic on the rocks drink.
Flavored Vodka: Consider Whipped Cream, Vanilla, Cake Batter Espresso,or even Marshmallow. A fruity flavor like strawberry would also be a yummy twist for a chocolate-covered strawberry-type drink.
Float: Instead of blending scoop ice cream into the drink.
Tips and Tricks
Keep your glass in the freezer to keep your drink ice cold.
Garnish: Garnish with whipped cream, chocolate chips, chocolate sprinkles, a cherry, or even oreo cookie crumbs.
Ice: If serving on the rocks use coffee ice cubes so your drink isn't diluted.
Strength: With 1 shot of liquor per serving, each drink is equal to about 1 standard drink. This creamy cocktail doesn't taste like alcohol, so as always be sure to enjoy it responsibly.
