Doc Holliday Cocktail
The Doc Holliday Cocktail is perfect for any holiday occasion! Made with Dr Pepper, Eggnog and rum for a tasty dessert cocktail that is so irresistible!
I know this drink combo sounds a little crazy but it totally works! My dad suggested we try his signature drink that he calls the Doc Holliday (Dr Pepper Holiday Cocktail). He makes it with Dr Pepper and light rum, similar to a rum and coke but with Dr Pepper.
After seeing the viral Dr Pepper and eggnog combo on instagram, we decided to make mashup the two ideas and it is a definite must-try! I don’t even like Dr Pepper or Eggnog but mixed together it is soooo tasty.
Ingredients Needed for Doc Holliday Cocktail
- Light Rum: We are using Bacardi white rum, use your favorite brand.
- Eggnog: Every store was sold out of eggnog so we made homemade eggnog for this cocktail. I have to say our version is so much better than store-bought and it’s pretty easy too.
- Dr Pepper: We are using classic Dr Pepper, Diet Dr Pepper works too.
- Ice: Ice is optional if all of your ingredients are chilled but you want this to be an ice cold cocktail.
How to Make Dr Pepper Eggnog Cocktail
- Add ice to glasses. Use a cocktail jigger to measure rum, pouring over the ice.
- Next, measure eggnog and pour over rum.
- Then you simply fill glasses with Dr Pepper.
Notes and Variations
- Dr Pepper and Rum: Make my dad’s version adding 2 ounces of white rum to 6 ounces of Dr Pepper. Serve over ice, garnish with a maraschino cherry if desired.
- Eggnog Substitute: If you aren’t a fan of eggnog, rumchata, heavy cream or coconut milk can be substituted for a Dirty Dr Pepper Cocktail.
- Occasions: Great for Christmas parties, New Year’s Eve parties or just to enjoy by the fire with your friends and family.
