Nemmitman’s Revenge is a highball-style, dessert-leaning cocktail that stacks multiple base spirits with creamy liqueurs for an unapologetically rich, after-dinner pour. It doesn’t sit in the well-trodden canon of named classics; instead, it reads like a modern “revenge” drink built for indulgence and impact, combining vodka with both white and dark rum to give you a broad, punchy backbone beneath all that sweetness.
On the palate, the vodka and rums bring clean heat and a subtle molasses edge from the dark rum, while Bailey’s supplies the main wave of creamy sweetness. Amaretto adds a distinct almond note that plays neatly with crème de cacao’s chocolate depth, and a dash of chocolate syrup pushes the cocoa further into dessert territory. Milk stretches everything into a softer, rounder sip, and whipped cream on top doubles down on the velvety finish.
You’ll enjoy this most when you want a cocktail that drinks like a boozy milkshake—think late-night treats, celebratory nights in, or as a sweet alternative to a traditional digestif. It suits anyone who loves chocolate-and-cream flavours and doesn’t mind a drink that’s bold, decadent, and unmistakably indulgent in a tall glass.

Ingredients
Cocktail Colin says:
Vodka, white rum, and dark rum bring a hot, clean backbone that gets smothered by Bailey’s, amaretto, and crème de cacao, while a dash of chocolate syrup deepens the cocoa and milk stretches everything into a thick, boozy shake capped with whipped cream. It works as a maximalist dessert because the spirits keep the cream and nutty-chocolate liqueurs from cloying, best for sweet-tooth nightcaps and anyone who likes their after-dinner drink loud and indulgent.

FAQ's
Why is Nemmitman’s Revenge stirred and not shaken?

Can I use half-and-half instead of milk in Nemmitman’s Revenge?
Yes, you can use half-and-half instead of milk in Nemmitman’s Revenge to create a creamier texture. This substitution may enhance the cocktail's richness and body, which some may prefer.
