Holiday Mudslide Recipe
One of my favorite things about the holiday season is the return of the Peppermint Mocha at Starbucks.
Seriously…I count down the days!
This Peppermint Mocha Mudslide is an extra festive spin on my favorite coffee drink. It’s just perfect for cozying up to watch a movie on a cold winter day after the kids are in bed.
You could also serve this holiday mudslide after Christmas dinner or at a holiday party — I guarantee it will be a hit!

For your convenience in recreating our holiday mudslide recipe, I’ve included shop-able ad links to some of the tools we used. Read our disclosure policy here.
Bartender Essentials:
- Stainless steel 2-piece cocktail shaker (This is the style I learned to bartend with and still prefer)
- Cocktail strainer
Prep Tips:
- Substitute coconut milk for the heavy cream to make your drink dairy free.
- Place peppermint candies or candy cane in a plastic ziplock bag before crushing to keep pieces from flying everywhere.
- Use a rolling motion when rimming the glass to help the crushed peppermint to stick better and more evenly.
