Ingredients
  

  • 3 oz vodka flavored or neutral
  • 2 oz Irish cream velvety and rich
  • 1 oz vanilla liqueur adds warm vanilla aroma
  • 1/4 cup crushed sugar cookies for garnish and flavor

Equipment

  • Cocktail shaker
  • Fine strainer
  • Martini glass
  • Measuring jigger

Method
 

  1. Gather all your ingredients, including vodka, Irish cream, vanilla liqueur, and crushed cookies, along with your cocktail tools.
  2. Fill your cocktail shaker halfway with ice, ensuring there's enough to chill the mixture thoroughly.
  3. Pour in the vodka, Irish cream, and vanilla liqueur using the measuring jigger for accuracy. This combination forms the creamy, boozy base of your cocktail.
  4. Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds, hearing the ice rattle and feeling the shaker become cold to the touch.
  5. Place a fine strainer over a chilled martini glass and strain the mixture, catching any small cookie crumbs or ice shards, and pouring until the glass is nearly full.
  6. Sprinkle a generous layer of crushed sugar cookies on top of the cocktail for a crunchy garnish that adds flavor and visual appeal.
  7. Serve immediately while the drink is frosty and the cookie topping is crisp, enjoying the creamy, vanilla aroma with each sip.
