I love gingerbread and I love cocktails! So I give you my Gingerbread Baileys Holiday Cocktail for your festive season.
Now go forth and be merry!
When I saw that Captain Morgan had a Gingerbread Rum I don’t think I’ve ever been more excited. Gingerbread is underrated to me. Peppermint gets all the glory this time of year and so my goal is to raise gingerbread awareness!
Fancy Bar Items For This Cocktail:
- Cocktail Shaker Set – this set includes the shaker, jigger for measuring and other things for other cocktails
- Rocks Glasses
- Microplane/Zester
Gingerbread Baileys Holiday Cocktail
So while I’ve provided a list of great bar items to have on hand, I’m gonna be real with you! I most of the time use whatever glass is clean, which sometimes means a $1 plastic Mickey’s Clubhouse cup! And, measuring alcohol? Don’t make me laugh, pour it in and I will hear the whisper of the cocktail gods when the amount is right!
I haven’t professed my love for these cookie gingerbread men! I have loved these guys since I was little, Pepperidge Farms Gingerman Cookies! They make the perfect accent to this cocktail!
