My little monster friend here is basically a White Russian with ice cream instead of cream. You could totally make the original version and then just call it a" ghost" if you wanted to, I just couldn't pass the opportunity of using this amazing Blue Moon ice cream I found at the store the other day and since is Halloween, why not!
Also at the store I found a new Cool Whip Topping Frosting! I really like it! it is thick, holds well just like frosting and you just keep it in your refrigerator. I think is perfect for these kind of drinks.
It's sweeter than the traditional but don't be fooled by the sweetness, it's still spiked so be careful, lol!
"Too Friendly" Ghost
Spiked Monster
I think these guys have a mild case of hangover, look at those eyes, lol!!
It is Friday tomorrow so go ahead and get what you need to make this delicious cocktail and enjoy! Have a happy pre-weekend and remember my friends everything tastes better with a Pinch of Love!
Besitos,
Lizy

ReplyDeleteLove, love the "cookie monster." Too cute!
I love these, your decorations on them are just amazing. I'm wondering what flavor that Blue Moon Ice Cream is. Hmm, may have to find out.
ReplyDeleteHi Karen It's a hard to describe flavor, very unique, not fruity more like sweet cream candy. It's by Hudsonville and I don't believe is one of it's seasonal flavors so you would be able to find it any time or the year! :)
DeleteHi Lizy, wow how adorable! Thanks so much for making me laugh tonight! The white russian one sounds so good and I'm laughing about the hangover eyes on the cookie monster drink! Wow I can't believe how creative you are! Wishing you a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteJulie
