cream cocktail in chocolate dipped glass with donut holes

Boston Cream Donut Cocktail

Picture of Heather Wibbels, Cocktail Contessa, pouring a cocktailHeather Wibbels
Take things over the top with this creamy, custard-based cocktail blended with bourbon, chocolate liqueurs and a little syrup. It’s as if you’re drinking a custard-filled donut dripping with chocolate glaze. If you really want to take things up a notch garnish with mini-eclairs or chocolate-covered donut holes.
