Preparation Time 10-15 minutes
Cooking Time 0 minutes
Total Time 10-15 minutes
Level of Difficulty Easy

Ingredients

  • 1/2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tablespoon sugar
  • Ice (enough to fill your shaker halfway)
  • 1 cup eggnog (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 cup vodka
  • 1 cup coffee liqueur
  • 2 tablespoons molasses
  • A pinch of gingerbread spice
  • Whipped cream (optional topping)

Step 1: Prepare the Glasses

Begin by wetting the rims of four cocktail or coupe glasses slightly, making sure the moisture is evenly distributed.

Then, dip the rims into a mixture of ground cinnamon and sugar to coat them evenly.

Once coated, set the glasses aside to allow the cinnamon-sugar mixture to adhere properly.

Step 2: Mix the Cocktail

Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice to keep the mixture cold.

Add the eggnog, vodka, Kahlua, molasses, and gingerbread spice (or ginger) into the shaker.

Seal the shaker tightly and shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined and chilled.

Step 3: Serve the Cocktail

Carefully strain the cocktail mixture into your prepared cocktail or coupe glasses.

Alternatively, if preferred, strain over ice in rocks glasses for a different presentation.

For an indulgent touch, top each serving with whipped cream, then drizzle with molasses or caramel if desired.

Enjoy your festive and flavorful cocktail!
