Move over eggnog, gin fizz and espresso martinis, there’s a new cocktail in town – the Caramilk martini – and it’s going down an absolute TREAT. Cheers!
This Caramilk martini recipe includes ALL of the old favourites. We’re talking Baileys Irish Cream, vodka and of course, the main star – Caramilk.
If you’re looking for a signature cocktail to get you through the festive season, this surely must be it. An original recipe from New Idea Food, many a comment has been made suggesting to omit the ice to maintain that silky, creamy mouth-feel. Perhaps try it both ways and then decide. Or drink it lickety-split quick so the ice doesn’t melt. #takeonefortheteam
