Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 8 shots of espresso (2 for each drink)
- 1 cup Oreo milk
- 2 oz peppermint syrup
- 1/2 cup ice
Oreo Milk
- 10 Oreos
- 4 cups whole milk
Oreo Whipped Cream Topping
- 2 cups whipped cream
- 5 Oreos, crushed to a powder
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 candy canes, crushed (for topping)
- Oreo crumbs (optional)
- Christmas nonpareil sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Make Oreo milk. Soak Oreos in milk overnight or at least 8 hours for the best flavor. Strain the Oreos out with a superfine mesh strainer or cheesecloth.
- Make Oreo whipped topping. In a stand mixer, add whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla, and mix until it reaches a whipped cream texture and soft peaks form. Gently mix in crushed oreos mixed into whipped cream. Fill a piping bag with the Oreo whip.
- Make a double espresso shot for the best flavor.
- Assemble the drink. In a glass or plastic to-go cup, assemble the drink. Add ice, peppermint syrup, milk, and espresso in that order to a cup. Pour everything into a drink shaker and give it a good shake before pouring it back into your cup. This will evenly distribute the peppermint and espresso and Oreo flavor throughout the drink.
- Top the drink with a piping of Oreo fluff and sprinkle the top with candy cane, Oreo crumbs, and Christmas sprinkles.
