Description
Let’s be honest — the holidays just aren’t complete without a cocktail that’s as festive as it is indulgent. Enter: the Gingerbread Cocktail with Cream — a dreamy combination of coffee liqueur, Irish cream, vodka, and gingerbread syrup, all blended with a spoonful of vanilla ice cream and crowned with whipped topping and cinnamon.
Ingredients
🍸 Liquors:
1½ oz Bailey’s Irish Cream
½ oz Kahlua Coffee Liqueur
1 oz vodka (plain or vanilla)
🎄 Flavorings:
½ oz Torani Gingerbread Syrup
🍦 Cream & Garnishes:
1 small scoop vanilla ice cream (Haagen-Dazs Vanilla Bean recommended)
Whipped topping (extra creamy)
Ground cinnamon, for dusting
Gingerbread man candy (Wilton brand or similar)
Each ingredient brings something unique to the table — from warmth to richness to visual charm.
Instructions
Fill a cocktail shaker with approximately 1 cup of ice. Add Bailey’s Irish Cream, Kahlua Coffee liqueur, vodka, gingerbread syrup, and softened vanilla ice cream.
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for 20 to 30 seconds until the mixture is thick, creamy, and well combined.
Strain the cocktail into a chilled 6-ounce martini glass.
Top with a dollop of creamy whipped topping, sprinkle with ground cinnamon, and adorn with a gingerbread man candy before serving.
