This fun and festive cocktail was invented in 1918 by Philibert Guichet. It is frothy, creamy, minty, and chocolatey, and it screams HOLIDAY. This version has a twist: an optional shot of vodka. It cuts a bit of the sweet. It tastes just like a party in a glass!

Ingredients

  • 2 ounces half and half, or heavy cream
  • 1 ounce crème de menthe
  • 1 ounce crème de cacao white/clear
  • 1 ounce vodka
  • For the garnish, one or a combination of the following: chocolate sauce to swirl, whipped cream, chocolate shavings, mint sprig, optional but fun

Instructions

  1. Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Pour in all the ingredients except the garnish and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds.
  2. Pour into cocktail glasses and garnish.
