Irish Potato Martini at McGillin’s Olde Ale House

A whimsy play on a Philadelphia-born candy, the Irish Potato dessert, (which doesn’t actually use potato), is a delight consisting of cinnamon, cream cheese, and coconut flacks. Pretty heavenly. Imagine those indulgent flavors as a cocktail. It actually exists! The Irish Potato Martini is proudly served at McGillin’s Old Ale House in Philadelphia. The cinnamon and sugar-rimmed sipper is shaken with Malibu rum, silky coconut milk, and vanilla vodka. Then, tastefully sprinkled with coconut shavings, merely creating a boozy Cinnabon on the glass.
