Midnight Snowstorm

By Colleen Graham, About.com

Irish Coffee Glass

Glass Guide- Irish Coffee Glass

This recipe for a Midnight Snowstorm is very similar to a Hot Peppermint Patty, using crème de menthe in place of the harsher peppermint schnapps. This substitution leaves the minty, chocolate flavor but does so in a very smooth, creamy way. Use white crème de menthe inside the drink and add green crème de menthe on top of the whipped cream for a little color.

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz white crème de menthe
  • hot chocolate
  • 1/2 oz green crème de menthe
  • whipped cream

Preparation:

  1. Pour white crème de menthe and hot chocolate into an Irish coffee glass.
  2. Top with whipped cream.
  3. Drizzle the green crème de menthe on top.
