This cocktail is creamy, cool, and smooth!

vodka

Pour the chocolate liqueur, creme de menthe, vanilla vodka, regular vodka, and half-and-half cream into a cocktail shaker over ice. Cover, and shake until the outside of the shaker has frosted. Strain into chilled martini glasses rimmed with chocolate syrup to serve.n


This is one drink that I have a couple times during the holiday season. It's a little on the sweet side, but great for those who like chocolate and mint together. TIP: This is even better if you use a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream instead of the cream and mix it up in the blender until smooth. 

These drinks were delicious and a pretty shade of green (maybe the other reviewer didn't use clear chocolate liqueur)!  We drizzled the chocolate syrup around the edge of the drink at the end and it ran down the inside of the glass in funky streaks.  Tastes just like mint chocolate chip ice cream.  Fantastic!

It was good but very very sweet.  I used half and half but then added milk to try to dilute the sweetness.. then added more vodka to dilute it further. :)  I'd probably reduce the creme de menthe a little and try it in a blender with ice next time.

Very sweet. I used milk, instead of cream.  Also added a little extra but it's still very sweet and very strong.

Vanilla vodka ruins this drink! Also, BITD, Smirnoff Blue was preferred. I always made mine (bartender) with equal parts 100 proof vodka, and the liqueurs, unless someone specifically wanted more or less of something. It used to be 1 oz each.  Shaken and served in an "ups" glass or  strained and poured over fresh ice.
