Notes
- This recipe makes one drink. If you're looking to serve a crowd, you can change the number of servings in the recipe card and the ingredient amounts will automatically recalculate.
- If you don't want to use corn syrup, use a different sticky substance on the rim of your glass to make the crushed candy canes stick. Some other options include honey, simple syrup or agave syrup.
- You can use half and half instead of heavy cream.
