Milk Maid | Cocktail Party

Milk Maid

This drink by bartender Elizabeth Weiss from The Whistler in Chicago showed up on their “greatest hits” cocktail menu for their 10th anniversary bash, and one taste of its strange, ethereal flavor will show you why it was so popular.

There’s no actual milk in it– the bright white color comes from a healthy measure of cream of coconut. It needs to be the sweet, syrupy kind, not coconut milk or unsweetened coconut cream.

Ingredients

Instructions

Shake everything (including the cucumber) with ice, and strain into an ice-filled short glass. Garnish with a fresh slice of cucumber and a light sprinkle of salt.

Game Changer

This is a game changer. When you're at the liquor store, thinking, "Yeah, ok fine what does Ancho Reyes liquor get me?" you open the app, look up Chile liquor and see that it gets you like 11 new cocktails. This is addictive, and indeed worth the price. We're having a blast under quarantine. While some of the ingredients are kind of anonymous, the icons look like the Campari bottle, and the descriptions often tell you if Campari will work or if you need Aperol. If you <3 cocktails, get this.
