Candy is Dandy But…

So after that last one I figure a nice light-hearted recipe is in order. Ok, maybe beyond light-hearted to a good old grand time!  ;-)

The following are far from “clean” but if you want to partake in the holiday party cheers with a legitimate drink, a reduced calorie version of holiday favorites never hurts..

Lightened White Chocolate Peppermint Liquid Dessert

1 oz Vodka

1 oz Creme de Cocoa (regular or white chocolate) or Peppermint Schnapps

1 oz Sugar-Free Peppermint Mocha Creamer

1 tbsp Sugar-Free White Chocolate Syrup (you can find SF Torani at World Market)

a few drops of Peppermint Extract (optional)

Shake everything together with ice and pour into a fun glass. OR if you wanted an adult version of a Starbucks fave, pour this into a cup of coffee! yum…

Ok actually this next one isn’t even lightened..

Chocolate Pecan Pie in a Glass

1 oz Cake Vodka

1/2-1 oz Creme de Cacao

1/2-1 oz Pecan Liquer

1/2 oz Godiva White Chocolate Liquor OR for a lighter version, Sugar-Free Vanilla Creamer

Shake everything together with ice and pour!

Do you have any favorite holiday cocktails?

  1. High-Fives to yummy cocktails! I’m a big fan of the espresso martini with a couple chocolate covered espresso beans. Light, strong, and full of flavor. DELISH!

  2. I am not a drinker but these sure sound good!!!! Like a dessert! :-)
