Typically, an old fashioned is served with whiskey, so we were surprised that the tequila actually tasted closer to a whiskey. We didn’t really pick up on the gingerbread or cookie flavor, but there was plenty of chocolate flavor to enjoy.

We really liked it, but it’s for those that like strong drinks and want to taste their alcohol.

Yippie Pie Yay — $11.00

360 Vanilla Vodka, Monin Praline Syrup, Monin Cinnamon Syrup, Intense Ginger Liqueur, Chocolate Syrup, Half & Half, and Nutmeg

This was absolutely delicious. We couldn’t taste the alcohol, as it went down smooth, somewhat like a vanilla milkshake.

Also like a milkshake, this is rather creamy and sweet.

We thought it was absolutely perfect, so much so that we’re already making plans to get it again before the holidays are over.
