Recipe Name Tips:
Fill a Shaker with ice
This is a super simple drink to make, but it helps to have your ingredients ready if you are making several for a party. Start with a shaker filled with ice and add your ingredients.
While I used cherry vodka, you can substitute it for a different flavor if you like. Whipped cream vodka is another flavor that works great for this recipe.
Strain into a glass
You can rim your glass with sugar if you like, but I chose not to. The drink is sweet enough without it.
A stemless wine glass or martini glass can be used for this cocktail. It helps to use a glass that is tall enough for the Peeps.
I thought it looked cute adding two Peeps to a skewer. Peeps are one of those things you either love or hate, but you have to admit they are cute! Even if you don’t like the taste, they make an adorable garnish for this Easter drink.
Drink Variations
If you want to make a non-alcoholic version of this drink for the kiddos, you can use strawberry milk. Or turn it into a strawberry shake with ice cream and strawberries. Be sure to add the marshmallow Peeps so they can enjoy the fun treat!
Another option is to use heavy cream in place of half and half. It will add more calories but it will also be a bit creamier. Why not indulge a little bit for the holiday?
That’s all there is to it! A fun and festive Easter peeps cocktail that you can whip up in under 10 minutes with just 5 ingredients. Let us know in the comments below if you give this recipe a try.
Happy Easter!
