Tip: 

  • Half and a half is a strong cream for drinks in the mid-range. Using milk will make the drink a little thinner and sugar will make a cocktail a little thicker. Either will work and you might even use a vanilla ice cream scoop.
  • To make this drink a little more dessert-like, place the bottle in the freezer after you rim it while the cocktail is blended.
  • Using a mortar and a pestle, it is easy to break hard candy. You can also put it in a zipper bag of plastic and turn it over with a rolling pin or whack it with a muddler. The goal is to get it as smooth as possible so it is relatively uniform and covering the rim will be easier.
