My parents introduced me to ice cream drinks. Dad likes Brandy Alexanders and mom prefers Grasshoppers. Whenever we would have ice cream drinks at Christmas, I would do a Grasshopper. I love mint. However, I always wanted to try a Brandy Alexander. This year I got the chance at Lyle's Light 'Em New Years Eve Party -- an annual gathering of a few of the hubby's officiating buddies.
Our host, Turkey, decided we were going to have ice cream drinks after our fabulous dinner. He gave us a choice of Brandy Alexander or Grasshopper. I know the hubby would rather have a Brandy Alexander so I that's what I said too. Why make Turkey do extra work.
Ingredients
- Brandy
- Creme de Cacao
- Vanilla Ice Cream
- Milk
- Cinnamon
Steps
1. Add a few scoops of ice cream into the blender
2. Add some milk

A Brandy Alexander is good but I still prefer a Grasshopper. A Brandy Alexander just seems boring. It needs more flavor. It is definitely a hubby kind of drink.
Now that I've tried a Brandy Alexander, the next after drink cocktail I want to try is a Pink Squirrel.
