Gingerbread White Russian Recipe

"A Christmas-y take on a favorite cocktail! This would be a great syrup to keep on hand throughout the season! From Half-Baked Harvest. NOTE: This makes enough syrup for about 16 cocktails, depending on how sweet you like it."

Step by Step Method

Make the Gingerbread Syrup:

Step 1

In a medium pot, combine the water, honey, molasses, ginger and cinnamon. Bring to a boil over high heat. Boil 3-5 minutes, then remove from the heat. Stir in the vanilla. Let cool. Keep in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. (I would double this recipe!!!)

To Make the Cocktail:

Step 2

Fill a pretty glass with ice. Add the vodka, kahlua and gingerbread syrup. Stir gently. Add the heavy cream and again stir gently to combine. Garnish with a cinnamon stick, and if you're feeling very decadent, a gingerbread cookie.
