Mama Mia

I know, I know. You hear the phrase Mama Mia and immediately “Bohemian Rhapsody” gets stuck in your head. It’s okay. Take five and hum a few bars. Or is that just me? I can’t get rid of the song. But at least it’s a good song, so there’s that.

Getting back to the topic at hand, the Mama Mia cocktail is very simple and not that far off from a B52, except that it’s not layered, is less sweet and isn’t pure alcohol. This is a two ounce drink featuring the standard ounce and a half of alcohol (vodka and amaretto) with a touch of cream. Goes down so very easy.

Recipe

• 1 ounce vodka
• 1/2 ounce amaretto
• 1/2 ounce cream

Shake the ingredients together with ice. Strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass.
