Servings 4 people

Equipment

  • Cocktail shaker
  • Highball glasses
  • Jigger

Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces vanilla vodka
  • 4 ounces coffee liqueur
  • 8 ounces heavy cream
  • Ice cubes
  • Whipped cream for topping

Instructions
 

  • Fill four glasses with ice cubes to chill them while you mix the drink.
  • Pour 2 ounces of vanilla vodka and 1 ounce of coffee liqueur into each glass.
  • Slowly add 2 ounces of heavy cream to each glass so it layers on top of the spirits.
  • Top each drink with a small dollop of whipped cream right before serving.

Notes

Chill the heavy cream ahead of time so the layers stay distinct and the drink does not water down quickly. If you want a stronger vanilla note, use a vanilla-flavored coffee liqueur instead of the standard kind. Skip the whipped cream if you prefer a simpler finish, but it adds the ghostly look that matches the name.
