A nice Christmas cocktail. Actually not too sweet!
These were tasty, but sweet. Definitely a dessert martini. I used 75% non-fat milk and 25% whipping cream instead of half and half, other wise followed the recipe exactly. I do plan to make these again. I’m going to crush a candy cane, and rim the glasses with the crushed candy cane. Yes, it’ll be sweeter, but the presentation will be worth it! Thanks for the recipe.
Used almond milk so it was dairy free still delish! Dipped it watching Elf!
I’ve made this as a holiday treat for a couple years and it’s a big family hit. I don’t change a thing.
So simple and a nice addition to a holiday party. Also great in coffee.
If not for the candy cane, the drink would have lacked flavor and pizzazz. I could barely detect any alcohol, much less the peppermint schnapps. It was only when the candy cane started to melt in the glass that I could taste peppermint. Sure, I could have added more schnapps, but I just couldn’t get into it enough to start tweaking.
Delicious! Don’t use more than a splash of grenadine though. Too much and it looks like pepto bismal.
Absolutely amazing! This was a big hit at a party. So yummy!
I scaled it down to one, using a jigger each of the peppermint schnapps and creme de cacao and a splash of half-n-half and grenadine. Delicious!
