Ingredients
Scale
For the Cocktail
- 1/4 cup chocolate syrup
- 1 1/2 oz Baileys Irish Cream
- 1 1/2 oz bourbon
- 1 oz chocolate liqueur
- 1/2 oz Kahlúa
- 1/2 oz milk
- Ice, as needed
Garnish
- Grated fresh nutmeg, for garnish
- 1 Oreo turkey (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Glass: Drizzle chocolate syrup inside a martini or coupe glass, creating a swirling pattern along the interior. Place the glass in the freezer to chill and set the syrup pattern until ready to serve.
- Mix the Cocktail: In a cocktail shaker, combine Baileys, bourbon, chocolate liqueur, Kahlúa, and milk. Fill the shaker with ice to chill the ingredients properly, then cover and shake vigorously for about 20 seconds until the outside of the shaker becomes frosty.
- Serve and Garnish: Strain the shaken cocktail into the prepared chilled glass. Grate fresh nutmeg over the top to add a warm, aromatic note. Optionally, garnish with an Oreo turkey on the rim or alongside the drink for a whimsical holiday presentation.
Notes
- Freezing the glass with the chocolate syrup swirl helps keep the drink colder longer and adds a decorative touch.
- Using fresh grated nutmeg enhances the flavor and aroma of the cocktail.
- The Oreo turkey garnish is optional but adds a fun festive element perfect for holiday parties.
- Adjust milk quantity for desired creaminess and texture.
- Chill all ingredients beforehand for best results.
