Method
Cocktail
Prepare glass
Chill a highball or rocks glass briefly (optional). Drizzle 1/2 to 1 tablespoon caramel sauce inside the glass in a spiral or along the rim so it creates a decorative streak. If using, rim the glass with crushed shortbread or cookie crumbs by wetting the rim lightly with caramel and dipping into crumbs.
Build the drink
Add the ice to the prepared glass leaving room for liquid. Pour 1.5 oz Stoli Vanilla Vodka and 1 oz butterscotch schnapps over the ice.
Add sweetener and dairy
Add 0.5 oz vanilla simple syrup, then pour in 1 oz half-and-half.
Top with root beer
Slowly top with 3 oz chilled root beer. Stir gently once with a bar spoon (2–3 slow turns) to combine the spirits, cream and soda without flattening the root beer.
Finish & garnish
Float a light drizzle (about 1/2 tablespoon) of caramel sauce on top and, if desired, add 2 tablespoons whipped cream. Garnish with an extra caramel drizzle and a sprinkle of shortbread crumbs or a small vanilla bean piece.
Serve
Serve immediately with a straw or cocktail spoon. Encourage the drinker to stir before sipping if the caramel has settled.
