Method
Cocktail
Chill glass
Place a martini or coupe glass in the freezer for at least 5 minutes while you prepare the cocktail to ensure it stays cold.
Combine ingredients
Add vodka, white crème de cacao, Irish cream liqueur, heavy cream, vanilla syrup, freshly grated nutmeg, and ice to a cocktail shaker. The ice should be enough to chill and slightly dilute the drink (about 1 cup).
Shake
Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–18 seconds until the outside of the shaker becomes very cold and the mixture is frothy from the cream.
Strain
Remove the chilled glass from the freezer. Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled martini or coupe glass using a Hawthorne strainer and, optionally, a fine mesh strainer to remove small ice shards for a silky texture.
Garnish
Dust the surface of the cocktail lightly with powdered sugar to create a 'snow' effect. Sprinkle the mini chocolate shavings or white chocolate curls in the center. If using, perch a small candy snowball or marshmallow on the rim or float gently on top.
