Ingredients

  • 0.5 ounce peppermint vodka
  • 1 ounce peppermint schnapps
  • 1.5 ounces candy cane-infused vodka
  • 1 ounce crème de cacao
  • Crushed candy canes for rimming

Instructions

  • Prepare the glass by pouring a small amount of water onto a plate. Dip the rim of the martini glass into the water, then into a plate of crushed candy canes, coating the rim evenly. Set the glass aside.
  • In a cocktail shaker, combine the peppermint vodka, peppermint schnapps, candy cane-infused vodka, and crème de cacao.
  • Add ice to the shaker, then shake vigorously until the mixture is well-chilled.
  • Strain the cocktail into the prepared martini glass.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy this cool, festive treat.

Notes

Pro Tips

  • For extra sweetness, use simple syrup instead of water when rimming the glass to help the crushed candy canes stick better.
  • Use white crème de cacao for a clear, festive-looking martini.
  • Garnish with a mini candy cane hanging off the rim or add a small peppermint stick to stir.
