Ingredients
2 ounces Irish cream liqueur
1 scoop vanilla ice cream
1½ ounces liquid espresso, slightly cooled
cocoa powder for garnish
Directions
Pour the Irish cream liqueur, vanilla ice cream, and cooled espresso into a cocktail shaker.
Fill the shaker halfway with ice cubes, secure the lid tightly, and shake vigorously for 20 to 30 seconds until the mixture reaches a very cold temperature.
Strain the chilled mixture into a cocktail glass and dust lightly with cocoa powder if desired.
Comments
This is a five-minute dessert drink that genuinely takes five minutes, with all four ingredients readily found at any Charlotte supermarket: Irish cream liqueur at any chain, vanilla ice cream everywhere, espresso (instant is fine), and cocoa powder in the baking aisle. At roughly three dollars per serving, it's an affordable treat that doubles as coffee and dessert. The real limitation is that it's a single-serving, same-night-only drink best enjoyed immediately, and it only works as an after-dinner indulgence rather than a weeknight staple for feeding a family.
