Girl Scout Cookie Cocktail

You can take your Girl Scout cookie cocktail as a shooter, a lowball on the rocks, a martini, or even a boozy ice cream drink. Cream and mint are always found in a Girl Scout cookie cocktail. In some cases, vodka is added and that will make the drink a dirty Girl Scout cocktail. There are even a few recipes that use Jägermeister instead of vodka. If you are a Jäger fan, you might really enjoy that variation.

There's also a bit of a feud between which type of liqueur to use. Some prefer chocolate, while others prefer a coffee liqueur. Coffee has long been the most popular option, though chocolate is more fitting to the cookie experience. Both create great-tasting drinks.

Choosing the Liqueurs

You have many options for each of the liqueurs used in a Girl Scout Cookie.

The Ease of an Equal Pour

With the exception of the frozen Girl Scout cookie cocktail, the other nice thing about all of these drinks is that they are easy to remember and mix up. That is because no matter what style drink or which liqueurs you choose, it is always an ​equal pour of each ingredient.

Choose Your Drink Style

The first three Girl Scout cookie cocktail recipes below can be made as a shot, a lowball, or a martini. The recipes include measurements for creating them as shots.

To adapt the recipes to the other styles:

When you add vodka, this Girl Scout gets a little dirty. This shooter is just a little stronger than the others, but it has that same great taste.

Use your favorite vodka and don't worry about using the best for this drink. There are many great vodkas that will not break the bank and this is exactly the type of drink where they are useful.

To make this drink, shake and strain 1/2 ounce each of vodka, coffee liqueur, Irish cream, and mint liqueur in a shot glass.

Next up is the recipe for that chocolate-flavored Girl Scout cookie that also includes vodka. If you are looking for a real Thin Mint experience, this is the recipe you want.

To make this shot, simply shake and strain 1/2 ounce each vodka, chocolate liqueur, creme de menthe, and Irish cream into a shot glass.

This is a very popular shooter that has been around for years. It rose to fame during those days when everyone was layering shots like the famous B-52. While these drinks are not gone, they are not as hot as they once were.

The after five cocktail is included here because for years the Girl Scout cookie and after five were the same drink. The ingredients and pours are the same, this version is simply layered. It wasn't long before the shaken version took over and the drink took on the more popular name.

To make this layered shot, fill a shot glass a third of the way with chocolate liqueur. Float an equal amount of Irish cream on top. Finish up the shot by floating peppermint schnapps on top.

If you want a delicious ice cream drink that reminds you of those minty shakes that pop up during St. Patrick's Day, this is it.

Those shakes are great, but this Girl Scout cookie is even better. It includes chocolate vodka and ice cream because you can ​never have enough chocolate. You could use a plain vodka or simply use this as an excuse to pick up something like Van Gogh Dutch Chocolate.

Also, rather than just a spiked milkshake, add a little ice to make this more drinkable. It's very similar to the popular chi-chi drink, only chocolate-mint flavored.

To make this drink, combine 1 1/2 ounces chocolate vodka with 3/4 ounce peppermint schnapps, 1 scoop chocolate ice cream, and 1/2 cup ice in a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour into a chilled glass rimmed with chocolate cookie crumbs.
