Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.71 / 5
The cocktail named "Hushed" is a creamy and indulgently sweet concoction that features the rich and smooth textures often associated with dessert beverages. Its main ingredient, Bailey's, provides a velvety Irish cream flavor, which is complemented by the chocolate notes from the Crème de Cacao. The addition of milk softens the cocktail, making it a calming and comforting sipper. Served in a highball glass, it boasts a playful presentation when finished with a generous topping of squirty cream and a whimsical sprinkle of hundreds and thousands, reflecting its lighthearted dessert-like appeal. The Hushed cocktail is typically enjoyed as a post-dinner indulgence or a sweet treat on a relaxed social occasion.
