My husband is not a big drinker, he may have one or two drinks a year and I have a hard time convincing him to partake in one with me. However, I knew if I made a take on one of his favorite drinks he would probably drink with me. He is a big fan of white Russians plus he likes milkshakes a lot, so combine the two and I just might have a drink he can't resist trying.
Another benefit of this drink is that I had all of the ingredients, well almost all. I did not have vanilla vodka and I hate buying a big bottle of hard liquor not knowing if I will use it again, especially if the drink does not turn out well. It has happened before and I really did not want to have yet another bottle of hard liquor just sitting around. I had a feeling I could make my own vanilla vodka by adding vanilla extract to vodka and after a quick internet search confirmed I was right and was working on making this drink.
This drink is absolutely delicious and makes me want to make more hard liquor drinks. I love it and so does my husband and if I had more ice cream I would probably make us another one.
