Notes

Pro Tips

  • For an extra peppermint boost, chill the glass beforehand for a frosty effect that complements the peppermint flavor.
  • Adjust the sweetness by experimenting with the amount of white chocolate syrup on the rim—adding more for a richer treat.
  • Use whole or coarsely crushed peppermint candies to garnish the rim for a varied texture and appearance.
