If you are feeling the Mad Men love, why not try this 1960's classic pink cocktail favorite. I can just hear Betty Draper ordering it now... Just try not to crack a smile when you order this drink. I know it might be hard with a name like Pink Squirrel... heehee ~ Nope, I couldn't keep a straight face either.
INGREDIENTS
¾ oz crème de noyaux
¾ oz crème de cacao
½ oz vodka
1 oz fresh cream
INSTRUCTIONS
Pour all over ice in mixing glass. Stir and serve in martini glass.
