Gold Cadillac

August 1981
    Invented at Poor Red’s, in El Dorado, California, this sweet after-dinner drink made that establishment the largest consumer of Galliano in the world. It’s one of several Galliano-based cocktails that showed up in the magazine in the ’80s.

    In a blender with the motor on high blend 5 ice cubes, crushed, 3 tablespoons heavy cream, and 1 ounce each of white crème de cacao and Galliano for 15 seconds, or until the mixture is smooth, and pour the mixture into a chilled saucer-shaped Champagne glass. Makes 1 drink.
