Ingredients

  • 2 ounces peppermint vodka
  • 1.5 ounces coffee liqueur
  • ½ ounce milk
  • 0.25 ounce simple syrup for rimming

  • Shake the mixture well until it's thoroughly chilled and blended.
  • Strain the cocktail into the prepared martini glass.
  • Serve immediately for a festive, minty treat.

Pro Tips
