Step-by-Step Instructions To Make Drunk Bunny Recipe
1. Prep Your Glass
Start by drizzling chocolate syrup along the inside of your glass for a decorative touch. Swirl the glass to create streaks, then place it in the freezer for 2 minutes to set (this keeps the syrup from melting into the drink).
2. Shake the Cocktail
Fill a shaker halfway with ice. Add Baileys, vodka, chocolate liqueur, and milk. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds—until the shaker feels frosty. This chills the drink and creates a silky texture.
3. Assemble with Flair
Remove your glass from the freezer. Strain the cocktail into the glass, leaving room for toppings. Add a generous swirl of whipped cream (use a piping bag for a polished look).
4. Garnish Generously
Sprinkle chocolate shavings over the whipped cream and tuck a few mini eggs into the cream for a festive finish. Add a final drizzle of chocolate syrup if desired.
5. Serve Immediately
Pair with a straw or a petite spoon for scooping the toppings. Enjoy chilled!

Pro Tips for Success
– Chill Your Glass: A frosty glass keeps the drink colder longer.
– Quality Ice: Use fresh, dense ice to prevent over-dilution.
– Layer Flavors: Let the chocolate syrup set in the glass before adding the cocktail to maintain distinct layers.
– Fresh Garnishes: Shave chocolate from a bar (not pre-packaged shavings) for the best texture.
