Notes
Heavy cream (AKA whipping cream) is a must for this cocktail to make it smooth and creamy. Half-and-half does work, but it yields a slightly thinner drink. Milk will be even thinner, and won’t thicken up, so I don’t recommend it.Frozen Mudslide: Throw all the ingredients of this simple creamy cocktail in a blender with a few scoops of ice cream to make it like a boozy milkshake. Vanilla is classic, but you could also use coffee or chocolate ice cream for a twist.
