PEPPERMINT CHOCOLATE WHITE RUSSIAN INGREDIENTS:

With super fun liqueurs such as vodka, Kahlua, and peppermint schnapps it is a tasty and perfect combination that really plays well with each other.

With the addition of heavy cream, and chocolate syrup it really balances the alcohol flavor to a tasty and mellow flavor that you will absolutely love and is not overpowering in any way.

This recipe is super fun and is the perfect cocktail that you will want everyone to try at the holiday parties you may throw.

I think the addition of the chocolate and peppermint really set this drink off to the point that it is super festive and will quickly become one of your go-to holiday drinks.

HOW TO MAKE A PEPPERMINT WHITE RUSSIAN

Drizzle chocolate syrup around the inside edges of a cocktail glass and add ice.

RECIPE TIP: You can also dip the rim in chocolate and then in crushed peppermint candies.

Then pour the heavy cream into the glass over the back of a spoon or stir everything together.

PRO TIP: Pouring the cream over the back of the spoon gives the drink a beautiful marbled look. You can also stir to combine everything together to make it easier as well.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

What is a White Russian?

A traditional White Russian consists of vodka, coffee liqueur, and heavy cream, poured over ice in an old fashioned glass.

Do I have to use heavy cream?

No, you do not, a healthier substitute is half and half, but you can use milk as an alternative as well.

What if I don’t like vodka?

In normal White Russian recipes, vodka is one of the main components, but if you are not a vodka fan you can swap it out with rum either light or dark. This will produce a sweeter flavor compared to the vodka.
