River 57 Share Posted July 30, 2018 I learned this from a bartender at an Irish pub my family used to frequent. None of the places I tend bar now use it, but I like to bring it out at house parties to show off (and because it tastes like mint chocolate chip ice cream): 3/4 ounce Kahlua coffee liqueur 1/2 oz creme de menthe (or peppermint schnapps + 3 drops of green food coloring) 1/2 oz creme de cacao 8 oz milk (skim, 1%, or 2%) If you're good at freepouring, I think it tastes better with the milk poured first and the alcoholic elements added on top, but that's a recipe for disaster. Ideal glass is a highball glass, but any tumbler works. The twist on top is entirely up to you: when I want to be fancy, I usually top it off with whipped cream, mini chocolate chips, some hot fudge drizzle, and a Thin Mint cookie to pull it all together. Then again, I'm a showoff 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
