Ingredients
Liquids
- 1/2 cup vanilla vodka
- 1/4 cup eggnog
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
Garnish
- Nutmeg for garnish
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a cocktail shaker, pour 1/2 cup of vanilla vodka, 1/4 cup of eggnog, and 1/4 cup of heavy cream. Add ice to fill the shaker halfway to chill the mixture effectively.
- Shake Well: Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This chills and blends the ingredients to create a smooth and creamy cocktail.
- Strain and Serve: Strain the mixture evenly into chilled martini glasses to separate from the ice and ensure a silky texture.
- Garnish: Lightly sprinkle freshly grated or ground nutmeg on top of each martini to enhance the flavor with a warm, spicy aroma ideal for the Christmas season.
Notes
- Use good-quality vanilla vodka and fresh eggnog for the best flavor.
- Chill the martini glasses ahead of time for a cooler presentation.
- You can adjust the amount of heavy cream for a lighter or richer texture.
- For a non-alcoholic version, substitute the vodka with vanilla-flavored almond milk or milk.
- Grated nutmeg works better than pre-ground for a fresher garnish.
