Episode Synopsis

Who doesn’t love ice cream and booze mixed together? I’ll tell ya who, Jules but that’s ok, she has a great recipe that doesn’t use dairy. In this episode we cover the classic Pink Squirrel and Jules’ dairy-free Squirrely Girl. They are nutty and delicious. Uncle Brad gives us the scoop on the history behind the drink and together we tackle Mary Kate Schuster’s question, “What are your favorite drinks/recs for new home cocktail makers to try as they get into cocktails?” 
 
Pink Squirrel – the real way 
We use vanilla ice cream here, not heavy cream. When it comes to ice cream, don’t use the yellow stuff, it messes up the color. Use white.  
Chill your goblet or hurricane glass 
Grab your blender or immersion blender 
In your blender or shaker tin add, 

3 scoops of vanilla ice cream, what’s a scoop look like, about the size of a tennis ball.  

1oz of half & half 

¼ cup crushed ice 

1.5 oz creme de noyaux (Tempus Foo-git) 

1.5 oz white creme de cacao 

Whiz it aournd until it’s smooth 
Pour into your chilled goblet or hurricane glass 
Garnish with whipped cream, nutmeg, and a cherry

½ oz cherry syrup 

¾ oz white creme de cacao 

1 oz coconut cream
