After-dinner & dessert Cocktails
Rich, sweet, and creamy sippers to close the night. 6 recipes with step-by-step instructions.
Black Russian
A two-ingredient after-dinner sipper of vodka and coffee liqueur built right over ice. Its fixed spirit-to-liqueur ratio and zero-juice profile make it trivially scalable, with dilution coming only from the rocks.

Brandy Alexander
A silky after-dinner cocktail of cognac, dark crème de cacao and cream; equal-part simplicity makes it easy to scale, though the cream demands fresh shaking rather than long pre-batching.
See recipe →Espresso Martini
Vodka, Kahlúa, espresso — the after-dinner crowd-pleaser.
See recipe →Grasshopper
A creamy mint-and-chocolate dessert classic in equal parts; shaken with cream for a velvety texture, batching keeps its 1:1:1 ratio exact while the cream keeps the final strength gentle.
See recipe →Mudslide
A rich dessert cocktail of vodka, coffee liqueur and Irish cream; the cream content means it must be shaken cold and batched fresh, with low effective ABV from the heavy non-spirit volume.
See recipe →White Russian
A smooth, dessert-like build of vodka, coffee liqueur and cream — the spirit base batches perfectly, with cream floated fresh on each pour.
