Notes

  • Adjust the amount of alcohol used in this peppermint drink recipe to make it a little sweeter if it’s too strong for you.
  • Use fresh and cold heavy cream to prevent it from curdling in your drink.
  • Chill all of the components, including the cocktail glasses, to keep the drink as cold as possible for the best flavor and consistency.
