👩🏻🍳 How to make a sugar cookie martini
Pour some of the cake drip onto a small plate, then dip the rim of each martini glass in the cake drip.
Turn the glass a few times over the plate to remove any excess.
Pour some of the sprinkles onto a separate plate, then lightly dip each glass rim into the sprinkles to coat.
Set the glasses down gently on a plate or sheet of wax paper to set.
Pour the Baileys, vodka, amaretto, ice cubes, and half & half into a cocktail shaker.
Cover and shake well to combine.
Strain into the prepared glass.
Serve immediately.
📌 Recipe Notes & Tips
- Substitute half whole milk and half heavy cream for the Half & Half if needed.
- For a dairy-free cocktail – substitute half canned coconut milk and half dairy-free milk of your choice. You will also need to find the dairy-free version of Baileys Almande made with almond milk.
- Multiple cocktails can be made a day or two in advance and stored in an airtight pitcher in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
