What is a Mudslide?

This cocktail is a tasty and creamy flavor made as a milkshake, which is excellent for dessert, its flavor is incomparable with only a few ingredients, this is a variation of the original recipe where I only added creamy coffee ice cream to highlight its flavor and creaminess.

A Bit of History

This silky-textured drink was apparently created at the ‘Wreck Bar’ in the Cayman Islands. It was served very cold, so it looked almost like an Irish cream-flavored milkshake. However, when carrying vodka, the effects were not those of an innocent milkshake. Some even added a scoop of ice cream to the cocktail—as with some American milkshakes—and thus it was even creamier.

Mudslide Ingredients
