Day 13 of our 30 cocktails in 30 Days Challenge: the Cuban Milkshake
The Cuban Milkshake featured in a cocktail party we had in 2008 to celebrate the leap year. Our ‘buy 365 get 1 free’ bash was so arbitrary that it deserved a cocktail party!
The Cuban Milkshake is that best combo of sweet creaminess and alcohol kick that made the good ol’ Brandy Alexander a craze of its time. It’s a great comforting type of drink that you can curl up with and wait for Friday to come along. It’s a great Thursday drink!
Mind out though – it’s a bit filling, so don’t goal for a big night out with this one. Also, it’s dairy-based, so don’t have a Cuban Milkshake then drink a Coke. bad things will happen!
Perfect to wind down with or as a substitute (or supplement) to dessert, this cocktail’s rich and delicious!
Here’s how to make the Cuban Milkshake
Here’s what you need:
For each drink
Single measure of Bacardi
Single measure of Bailey’s
½ measure Mozart’s chocolate cream gold liqueur
4 procedures of milk
Chocolate shavings
Ice
Tumbler glass
Jigger measure, cocktail shaker, potato peeler
Here’s what you do:
Pour the rum, Bailey’s, chocolate liqueur and milk over ice into the shaker.
Shake gently – you can even stir it. You can shake it a lot more vigorously, it’ll just give the drink a bubbly texture on top.
Strain out over ice into the glass.
Shave chocolate over the surface with the peeler to garnish.
If you don’t have chocolate liqueur, that’s fine – it’s still a delicious drink without it!
