This Gingerbread Martini is a holiday-inspired cocktail made with just 3 simple ingredients: vodka, gingerbread syrup, and half and half. Perfect for the season.
Crushed graham crackers or cinnamon Teddy Grahams, whole Teddy Grahams for edgefor the rim
Instructions
If you are making your own syrup, make it in advance. I like to use Torani syrups when available.
In a cocktail shaker with ice, combine gingerbread syrup, vodka, and half and half. Shake for 30 seconds.
To prepare the rim: Place the crushed Teddy Grahams on a plate. On another plate, add a small amount of gingerbread syrup. Dip the rim of the glass into the syrup then roll the rim into the graham cracker crumbs.
Strain the cold cocktail into the prepared martini glass.
