Brandy Alexander Milkshake Recipe
This milkshake recipe, made with ice cream, brandy and creme de cacao, was on the menu at our book club party for 11/22/63, a novel by Stephen King that takes you back to the 1950′s and 1960′s. It is a delicious dessert drink, but be careful – it can go down a little too easy

I always love how milkshakes look all pretty in those tall glasses. I think it need to get them myself for some decorative photograhps for the blog in the future

There is something nostalgic about enjoying a milkshake in a tall glass. Now you have me craving milkshake for breakfast.

What a great idea to have with a 11/22/63 bookclub party! A good match! I used to make these years ago…now I am wondering why on earth I stopped!

Oh, yeah, those alcoholic drinks that are really desserts are downright dangerous! Sounds yummy!
