Foxy lady

Pro tips

• Shake hard for 10–15 seconds with ice to fully emulsify the cream and achieve a silky texture.
• Use fresh heavy cream; older cream may separate or curdle during shaking.
• Chill your glass beforehand to keep the drink cold longer and prevent melting.
• Taste for balance: if too sweet, add a small splash of lemon juice; if too thin, use slightly less ice when shaking.

Substitutions

• Crème de Cacao (Brown) → Crème de Cacao (White) (lighter chocolate flavor, same sweetness)
• Heavy cream → Half-and-half or whole milk (less rich; use slightly less for body)
• Amaretto → Frangelico or Kahlúa (shifts flavor toward hazelnut or coffee notes)

What type of drink is a Foxy Lady?

A creamy, after-dinner cocktail in the liqueur family, best served as a dessert drink or digestif.

Can I make a Foxy Lady without heavy cream?

Yes. Substitute half-and-half, whole milk, or coconut cream for a lighter or dairy-free version, though texture will be less rich.

Should a Foxy Lady be shaken or stirred?

Shake vigorously with ice to properly emulsify the cream and chill the drink; strain into a glass.

What glass should I use?

A coupe, martini, or small rocks glass works best; pour over fresh ice or up (without ice) depending on preference.
