Tips!

  • For plane increasingly peppermint flavor, use all peppermint ice surf of half peppermint/half vanilla ice cream.
  • These cocktails are weightier served as soon as they made so that the ice surf doesn’t get warm.
  • Peppermint vodka adds increasingly flavor, but you can use plain.

Can I use dairy self-ruling ice cream?

Yes! If you have a lactose intolerance, use your favorite trademark of dairy-free ice cream.

What kind of peppermint vodka should I use?

Smirnoff does a really nice peppermint vodka that works great. Creme de menthe can be used but it does tend to be much sweeter.

Where can I find crushed peppermints?

I love using King Leo crushed peppermints. Or, try crushed snacks canes instead – place a few snacks canes in a zip-top bag and smash them with a rolling pin.
