Special thanks this week to my mom and dad who were visiting over the weekend and inspired this week's cocktail. It's clear where Amie and I received our passion for a good drink...followed by another good drink! One of their favorite desserts / cocktails / it's-okay-to-enjoy-between-meals-during-lent-if-you-can-get-it-through-a-straw treats is a Kahlua Supreme, which is simply Kahlua blended with vanilla ice cream. That seemed like a good base for our dessert-themed beverage, which got kicked up two notches with the addition of two more liqueurs. See the bonus cocktail below for the other half of the inspiration used to create the Ka-Cinna Slide.
Ingredients:
Vanilla Ice Cream
Kahlua
Irish Cream (used Merry's but Bailey's is good, too)
Cinnamon Schnapps (used After Shock)
Chocolate Syrup
Cherry (optional garnish)
Ka-Cinna Slide: Drizzle chocolate syrup on the inside of a martini glass. Add 2 big scoops of vanilla ice cream, 1 jigger of Kahlua, 1 jigger of Merry's, 1/4 jigger of After Shock to blender. Blend until smooth. Pour into prepped martini glass and garnish on the rim with a cherry.
Bonus Cocktail (after drinking two Ka-Cinna Slides tonight I can't decide if the official name of this shot is offensive or not so it'll remain nameless for now): shake equal parts Kahlua and After Shock in a shaker and strain into a small glass of ice. Garnish with a cherry and enjoy!
