Inspired by a classic Snowball cocktail, this easy six-ingredient dessert is flavoured with boozy, custardy Advocaat and zingy citrus. Set in cocktail glasses and top with cherries to mimic the tipple itself

Ingredients

  • 600ml double cream
  • 200g caster sugar
  • zest of 2 lemons, plus 75ml juice
  • zest of 2 limes
  • 150ml Advocaat
  • 18 maraschino cocktail cherries

Step by step

  1. Pour the cream into a saucepan, add the sugar and gently heat, stirring occasionally, to melt the sugar. Once melted, bring up to a simmer and bubble gently for 2 minutes, stirring regularly. Remove from the heat and stir in the citrus zests and juices (you will notice it thicken slightly), followed by the Advocaat, until combined. Transfer to a jug, then divide evenly among 6 cocktail glasses or small ramekins. Cool to room temperature, then carefully transfer to the fridge. Chill for at least 4 hours, or up to 2 days ahead, until set.

  2. To serve, top with the cocktail cherries, threaded onto small skewers or cocktail sticks, if you like.
