Can I make this ahead of time?

This drink is best blended right before serving so it stays cold and frothy. You can chill the glasses ahead of time and have the garnish ready, but blend the cocktail just before pouring.

What can I use instead of coffee ice cream?

If you want a less coffee-forward flavor, use chocolate ice cream or vanilla ice cream with a little extra chocolate extract. The texture will be similar, though the flavor will change.

Can I make it without alcohol?

Yes. Replace the vodka with milk, half-and-half, or a nonalcoholic spirit alternative, then blend as directed. You may want to add a little extra ice cream or ice to keep the drink thick.

How do I get the best rim garnish?

Use chilled glasses and dip only the rim into the chocolate syrup so it adheres evenly. If desired, let the syrup set for a minute before adding the sprinkles for better coverage.

Can I adjust the chocolate flavor?

Yes. The recipe already notes "or more if desired" for the chocolate extract, so you can increase it to taste. Add a little at a time so the flavor does not become overpowering.

What equipment do I need?

A blender and two stemmed martini glasses are the main tools. A small plate or shallow bowl for the chocolate syrup can also make rimming the glasses easier.
