What Can You Use Whip Cream Vodka For?

Whipped cream vodka tastes just like you think it would. Some whipped cream vodkas taste so much like whipped cream that you might incorrectly think the liquor is all whipped cream and no vodka. Given its distinctive taste, whipped cream vodka works as strong base for many types of alcoholic drink.

Classic Cocktails

  • Exchanging whipped cream vodka for regular vodka will make classic cocktails taste creamier and sweeter. A white Russian, which is equal parts vodka, coffee liqueur and cream, becomes even more of a dessert drink, and skipping the cream makes a black Russian, which can be served on the rocks or up in a martini glass. Substituting whipped cream vodka in a screwdriver, which is 1 shot of vodka topped with orange juice, transforms the drink into a creamsicle.

Fancy Martinis

  • Whipped cream vodka allows for more creativity in your mixing and sweetens up your martinis. Mixing 2 parts whipped cream vodka, 1 part creme de cacao and 1 part cream makes a cookies n' cream martini, and substituting the cream with creme de menthe gives you a mint chocolate chip martini. And the lemon drop martini, which is 2 parts vodka, 1.5 parts lemon juice and 0.5 parts simple syrup, will taste more like lemon icebox pie with whipped cream vodka.

Super Shots

  • Whipped cream vodka works as a fantastic base for many kinds of shots. Mixing equal parts of the vodka with different juices, such as cranberry or orange juice, produces creamy and fruity shots. Whipped cream vodka also works well with dairy-based products, like chocolate milk or Irish cream, and should be mixed with a 1:1 ratio in a shaker tin filled with ice and strained. The vodka has enough flavor you can also just chill it and shoot it straight.

Easy Mixers

  • Whipped cream vodka retains vodka's ease of mixing with many different types of beverages. Topping 1 shot of vodka with different soft drinks, such as root beer, cola or ginger ale, will result in a cocktail that tastes like a float. Mixing 1 shot of the vodka with orange soda gives you a variation of the creamsicle, and mixing 1 shot with equal parts club soda and lemon-lime soda with a splash of cranberry creates a fresh press.
