READ MORE ABOUT THE MUDSLIDE

How long does it take to make a Mudslide?

Less than two mintues. Maybe even one, once you’ve done it a couple times.

What does a Mudeslide taste like?

The Mudslide tastes sweet, creamy and has a velvety mouth-feel. Almost like a milkshake (if you’re feeling creative, try adding Kahlúa to your favorite milkshake recipes!).

What’s the secret to a perfect Mudslide?

Make sure you’re shaking the ingredients for long enough. Around 20 seconds is ideal. Also, experiment with different amounts of ice in your shaker, as this can affect the taste.

What’s the best garnish for a Mudslide?

We find that chocolate shavings, sprinkled on top, give it the perfect finishing touch, but feel free to experiment with different garnishes and see what you prefer.

When is the right time to drink a Mudslide?

There’s no “right” time. When you have it is up to you! Just remember, this is a sweet drink with some heavier ingredients, so maybe try having it after your main meal (like a dessert), or to finish off brunch.
