Banana Cream Pie Cocktail is an adult dessert beverage that is like enjoying a piece of Banana Cream Pie in liquid form. Try my Sugar Cookie Cocktail for another fun and tasty alcoholic drink.
Banana Cream Pie Cocktail
This drink has all the flavors of a banana cream pie. It has the vanilla wafer rim (like the crust of the pie), lots of creamy banana flavor from the liqueurs, and a dollop of whipped topping. I even added some banana slices as garnish.
Banana Cream Pie Cocktail Ingredients
Caramel Syrup: The caramel syrup will coat the rim of the glass to allow the crushed vanilla wafers to stick. In a pinch, you get by dipping the rim of the glass in water.
Vanilla Wafers: You only need a few wafers to crush to dip the rim of the glass. If you feel up to it, you can make your own homemade vanilla wafers to use in this recipe (and have a lot left over to enjoy).
RumChata Cream Liqueur: This cream-based liqueur is made with rum, cinnamon, and vanilla. Baileys is another creamy liqueur, but with chocolate flavor and Irish whiskey. However, Baileys does have a vanilla and cinnamon liqueur that you could use in this drink.
Banana Liqueur: Also known as ‘creme de banane’, this gives the dessert cocktail that important banana flavor!
Bananas: If you have some bananas, cut one up to add as a garnish to the drink.
Whipped Topping: We can’t leave out a dollop of whipped topping in this drink. You can make your own homemade whipped topping if you don’t have any store-bought on hand.
How to Make Banana Cream Pie Cocktail
To get this cocktail made and served, dip the rim of a cocktail glass in caramel. Then, dip the rim into the crushed vanilla wafers. To a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add the RumChata and banana liqueur. Shake well and pour into the prepared glass. Add some sliced bananas and whipped topping to the drink and enjoy!
Can I make this Cocktail without a Shaker?
Yes! Don’t miss out on this Banana Cream Pie cocktail just because you don’t have a cocktail shaker…yet. A great alternative would be to use a to-go coffee mug with a solid lid. Fill the mug up with ice, just like in a shaker, add all the ingredients, cover the opening mouth part, and get shakin’! When you are ready to pour the contents into the glass, just open up the mouth opening and pour. The lid should hold the ice back so you just get the chilled cocktail.
