Bourbon Milkshake
I’m not sure this recipe needs an introduction. It’s the grown-up dessert that we’ve been waiting for. I think this would be a great ending to a dinner party, served in small shot glasses or make it over-the-top, a la Black Tap and add a slice of pecan pie or molasses cookies to the top of the glass.
Tips:
Prep as much as possible ahead of time. Rim the glasses and measure out the bourbon, honey, and vanilla, so you can make the milkshake in a few minutes.
Don’t like bourbon for some crazy reason? Try Bailey’s, Patrón XO, or whatever you like.
