Boozy Cocktail Milk Shakes

Sometimes inspiration comes at weird moments, like when you pass a notorious fern bar near the office and it has a chalkboard sign out front flogging its dubious-sounding "cocktail milkshakes." But, wait. Why wouldn't you want a milk shake modeled after a favorite cocktail, right down to the booze? So we took three drinks and reimagined them as milk shakes—the White Russian was obvious, but the Old Fashioned proved to be awesome as a decidedly kid-unfriendly ice cream treat.

  • Guinness draught beer + chocolate syrup + ice cream = delicious milkshake!!

  • I love boozed up milkshakes!!! My all time favorite is a Nutella Milkshake with some Maker's Mark. I add Malt to it and chocolate sauce to make it extra decadent....YUMM!!!

  • Frozen Brandy Alexander --

    1 1/2 oz brandy
    1 oz dark creme de cacao
    1 scoop vanilla ice cream
    fresh grated nutmeg

    Blend until smooth, pour into cocktail glass and sprinkle with nutmeg.

  • This is not frozen - but a summery cocktail that tastes like a Root Beer Float. Could try to use vanilla ice cream instead of the light cream for the frozen effect.

    1/2 oz vodka
    1/2 oz Galliano herbal liqueur
    1/2 oz light cream
    Cola
    1 1/2 oz whipped cream

    Pour vodka, galliano, and light cream into a collins glass filled with ice cubes and stir well. Fill with cola, stir lightly, top...+READ

  • I recently discovered bourbon milkshakes, I use a tad more than 2 ounces though

  • You should have included the infamous BBC (Bailey's Banana Colada) that'll get a real buzz going.

  • I think the ratios are off; seems like you're more likely to get a sugar buzz than an alcohol one!

  • Many years ago, I had a friend who regularly made hers with Galliano.

  • Delicious shakes with a delicious layout. Yum!
