Ingredients

How to make it

  1. Pour the advocaat and lime juice into a highball glass filled with ice.
  2. Top with lemonade and stir gently.
  3. Garnish with a maraschino cherry.

Tip: Stir with plenty of cold, hard ice for 20 to 30 seconds. You want it chilled and silky, not cloudy.

About the Snowball Cocktail

The Snowball is a quintessential British Christmas cocktail dating back to the 1970s. Advocaat, a creamy Dutch liqueur made from eggs and brandy, gives it its distinctive yellow colour and rich texture.

Missing something?

  • No Lemonade? Use Lemon Soda (Fizzier and usually sweeter)
  • No Lime Juice? Use Lime (Squeeze fresh: 1 lime gives about 25 ml)
  • No Lime Juice? Use Lemon Juice (Softer, different aroma)
