My Military SavingsI hope you all made it through the Thanksgiving holiday unscathed. My family and I had a wonderfully relaxing and great time. Now, I’m ready for Christmas! The countdown is on people! It’s always been a tradition that my husband and I put the kids to bed, make a couple drinks, and wrap presents. Sometimes, I can even talk him into listening to Christmas music. HA! It’s so much fun and I look forward to it every year! I wanted to try something different this holiday season. Something tasty, but also festive! I decided to make this super simple recipe! Guess what? It’s a winner!
Ingredients:
- 1-2 oz. Bailey’s Irish Cream,
- 6-8 Fresh Raspberries
- Crushed Ice
- Additional Raspberries for Decoration
Directions:
- Toss 6-8 raspberries in the bottom of a glass.
- Muddle together.
- I used a wooden spoon handle to muddle my berries.
- Add crushed ice on top of the berries.
- Top with Bailey’s.
- YUM!
- It’s pretty too! These drinks are fantastic to have with some Christmas cookies while wrapping presents.
- Top with a couple raspberries for decoration if you feel like it. So fancy!
Notes:
- Muddle is just a fancy word for smash ’em up.
- It doesn’t have to be crushed ice. Crushed ice is just my favorite. You can certainly use whatever ice you prefer!
- It’s so easy and so refreshing. It’s like a drink and dessert all in one. A super delicious dessert! The tart berry cuts through the sweetness of the Bailey’s and balances the flavors perfectly.
That’s it, folks! So easy and SO yummy. The fresh raspberry really makes this drink amazing. Plus, it’s super easy to make!
This recipe is to be enjoyed by those 21 years and older. Please drink responsibly!
