Minty fresh and oh, so pretty! This Martini-style peppermint Vodka cocktail tastes like Christmas meets winter in a glass.
2 oz Candy Cane-Infused Vodka
1 ½ oz White Crème de Cacao
½ oz Peppermint Schnapps
1 Dash Angostura Bitters
Garnish: Crushed Candy Cane Rim
FOR THE COCKTAIL:
Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake until super cold and strain into a coupe glass rimmed with crushed candy canes.
FOR THE INFUSION:
For reference, we combined a full bottle of Vodka with an entire box of mini candy canes and let it infuse for a few days. This results in a strong candy cane-flavored spirit, which combined with the Schnapps makes for a very minty drink. So if you want a more subtle peppermint flavor, start with 2-3 mini candy canes per 8 ounces of Vodka -- you can always add more!
