Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.58 / 5
The Fantasy cocktail is a creamy, indulgent beverage that combines the rich taste of Amarula Cream with the cool, refreshing flavor of Crème de Menthe, all rounded out by the smoothness of milk. Traditionally served in a cocktail glass, the Fantasy offers a delightful twist with its minty undertones and the distinctive, fruity notes of Amarula, which is made from the African marula fruit. This drink's creamy texture and unique blend of flavors make it a fascinating choice for those who enjoy dessert-like cocktails with a hint of mint. It is often enjoyed for its soothing qualities and as a decadent after-dinner treat.
