Here’s what you’ll love about this recipe:
Homemade eggnog or store-bought
You can make this with either homemade eggnog or store-bought eggnog, depending on your preference and time. It’s important to note that not all eggnogs contain alcohol. Many store-bought versions are non-alcoholic, while homemade recipes often include rum, bourbon, or brandy. If your eggnog already contains alcohol, the cocktail will naturally be stronger when combined with the rest of the cocktail ingredients.
How to make an eggnog mudslide
- Drizzle chocolate syrup inside the glass or on the rim. Chill the glass in the freezer while you mix the cocktail.
- In a cocktail shaker, combine eggnog, vodka, coffee liqueur, and Irish cream. Add a handful of ice and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds.
- Strain the mixture into your prepared glass over fresh ice.
- Top with whipped cream, sprinkle with ground nutmeg or chocolate shavings and add a cinnamon stick.
Variations to try
- Frozen eggnog mudslide: Blend all the ingredients with ice for a frosty, milkshake-like version.
- Chocolate eggnog mudslide: Swap 1/2 oz of kahlua for chocolate liqueur or chocolate syrup to make it extra chocolatey.
- Spiced mudslide: Use spiced eggnog or add a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg for more holiday vibes.
