Description

Pink mudslide cocktails blend creamy vodka, Kahlúa, and Bailey’s with strawberry syrup for a luscious dessert drink. Chocolate drizzle and whipped cream crown this indulgent cocktail that you’ll savor with pure delight.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 oz (30 ml) strawberry liqueur (like Tequila Rose or a strawberry schnapps)
  • 1 oz (30 ml) coffee liqueur (like Kahlua)
  • 1 oz (30 ml) vodka
  • 2 oz (60 ml) heavy cream or milk
  • ½ cup ice
  • whipped cream (optional)
  • pink sugar crystals or sprinkles (optional)
  • fresh strawberries (optional)

Instructions

  1. Glass Preparation: Moisten martini glass rim with strawberry liqueur and coat with pink sugar crystals, creating an elegant, decorative edge.
  2. Cocktail Mixing: Combine vodka, coffee liqueur, strawberry liqueur, and heavy cream in a cocktail shaker filled with ice, then shake vigorously for 25 seconds until the mixture becomes frothy and thoroughly chilled.
  3. Serving and Garnishing: Strain the luminous pink cocktail into the prepared martini glass, top with a generous dollop of whipped cream, and sprinkle additional pink sugar crystals for a sparkling finish. Garnish with a fresh strawberry perched on the rim or floating within the creamy drink.

Notes

  • Rim-Coating Technique: Use a light, even touch when applying strawberry liqueur to the glass edge, ensuring sugar crystals stick uniformly without clumping or creating uneven patches.
  • Shake with Precision: Maintain a consistent, vigorous shaking rhythm for exactly 25 seconds to achieve the ideal temperature, texture, and thorough ingredient integration.
  • Cream Quality Matters: Select high-fat heavy cream for a richer, smoother cocktail that creates a more luxurious mouthfeel and stable foam when shaken.
  • Strawberry Freshness Boost: Choose ripe, in-season strawberries for garnish to enhance both visual appeal and potential subtle flavor nuances in the cocktail.
