If you love peppermint and chocolate together, you are going to absolutely love this cocktail! It tastes just like a Peppermint Patty in a martini glass! It is such a festive drink and it is the perfect cocktail for the holidays!
Cheers to a fun and joyous Christmas week ahead!
Peppermint Patty Cocktail
Ingredients:
Candy canes, crushed
Chocolate syrup
1 1/2 oz. Peppermint Schnapps
1 1/2 oz. Dark Crème de Cacao
2 oz. cream (or half and half)

Optional garnish: Peppermint Patties and a candy cane
Brush the rim of a martini glass with chocolate syrup and roll the glass rim into the crushed candy canes.
Drizzle some chocolate syrup into the martini glass.
Add the Peppermint Schnapps, Dark Crème de Cacao and cream to an ice filled cocktail shaker. A mason jar works great if you do not have a cocktail shaker.
Shake well and pour into your prepared martini glass.
