Ingredients

  • 2 ounces vanilla-flavored vodka
  • 2 ounces half-and-half
  • 1.5 ounces peppermint schnapps
  • Sugar for glass rim (optional)

Step 1: Prepare the Glass

Begin by pouring some sugar onto a small plate.

Wet the rim of a double old-fashioned or martini glass.

Dip the rim of the glass into the sugar to coat it evenly.

This will create a sweet, decorative rim for your drink.

Step 2: Mix the Ingredients

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.

Add the following ingredients to the shaker: vodka, half and half, and schnapps.

Cover the cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for 20-30 seconds to ensure the ingredients are well mixed and chilled.

Step 3: Serve the Cocktail

Strain the mixture from the cocktail shaker into the prepared glass.

If you prefer, you can add a large square ice cube to the glass, but this is optional.

Now, your cocktail is ready to be enjoyed!

Step 4: Enjoy!

Take a moment to appreciate your perfectly made cocktail.

Sip and savor the flavors.

Cheers!
