Tip:

To add a touch of indulgence and enhance the depth of flavors you can consider toasting some marshmallows and placing them on top of your cocktail along, with a dollop of whipped cream. The charred and caramelized notes from the marshmallows beautifully complement the Baileys and velvety hot chocolate creating a delightful contrast in both texture and taste. Not does this elevate the appeal of the drink but it also adds a nostalgic twist reminiscent of cozy evenings by a campfire. Who could resist the allure of a toasted marshmallow, on a winter night?

Frequently Asked Questions:

Is it okay to use different flavored ice cream?

If you want to add some excitement to your dessert feel free to try flavored ice creams instead of sticking to just vanilla. Chocolate or peppermint flavors can give it a twist.

Can I make it non-alcoholic?

If you prefer a non-alcoholic version of the recipe simply skip the Bailey’s. This way even kids can enjoy the creamy. Chocolatey goodness, without any alcohol involved.

Notes

To make our delightful Drunken Snowman Cocktail gluten-free pay attention to the chocolate mix, which is the key ingredient, in our recipe. Many hot chocolate mixes contain gluten as a thickening agent so choose one that is clearly labeled as gluten-free. These types of mixes are often made with cocoa and sweeteners without any additional fillers or ingredients that contain gluten. Also make sure that your vanilla ice cream and Bailey's Irish Cream are free, from gluten as some brands might use flavorings or additives that contain it.
