Tips for the Perfect Sugar Cookie Martini
Creating this stunning dessert cocktail is easy, but a few tips can make it even better:
- Perfect Rim: Use a shallow dish for the vanilla frosting and another for the sprinkles. Dip the martini glass rim first into the frosting, then gently into the sprinkles. Freeze the prepared rim for 5 minutes before pouring the cocktail to help it set.
- Vodka Choice: While vanilla vodka is classic, using whipped cream vodka will add an extra layer of sweet, creamy richness, making your Sugar Cookie Martini even more indulgent.
- Creaminess Factor: Oat milk works wonderfully for a dairy-free option, but heavy cream or half-and-half will give an even richer, thicker consistency.
Serve this beautiful cocktail at your next gathering and watch your guests' eyes light up. It’s not just a drink; it's an experience!
