If you are looking for a delicious and fancy drink to serve during the holiday season, check out this Peppermint Christmas Cocktail. You can either serve it in a martini glass like I did or feel free to use a short glass.
A little background about this drink. Neither my husband nor I eat dairy. I’m not a big dessert fan, but he is! He would enjoy a Chocolate Martini or a White Russian from time to time. After we went dairy free that pretty much eliminated any type of drink with Baileys or any other creamy liquor. But then we discovered Baileys Almond Milk Liqueur which is both gluten and dairy free. We were a little skeptical about how this was going to taste. It’s too good to be true, right?! WRONG! It was delicious.
So how do I make this peppermint dream? It’s easy.
For each drink:
- 1 ounce vodka
- 1 ounce Bailey’s Almond Milk Liqueur
- 3/4 ounce Peppermint Schnapps
- A small squirt of dairy free Reddi Wip (optional)
Add these ingredients, along with some ice, to a cocktail shaker. Pour into your preferred glass. Add a candy cane for some festive flair. I also added crushed candy cane and some red sprinkles to the top. You will LOVE IT! No guilt (as long as you drink responsibly). Happy tasting!
I’m a sucker for everything peppermint during the holidays! I’m definitely giving this one a try.
