Nutrition: note that nutrition is calculated to the frozen mudslide.

Vodka: For this cocktail, I like to use espresso vodka to enhance the coffee flavor of Kahlua. You can also use classic vodka without flavors if espresso vodka is not available.

Milk: you can use full fat, low fat, or fat free milk, per personal preference.

Blender: make sure to use a strong blender that can easily blend ice. There’s nothing worse than ice chunks in a milkshake!

Gluten Free Notes: Bailey’s now makes a gluten-free and lactose-free Irish cream. Kahlua is another factor that could effect a person with gluten allergy or Celiac disease. Officially, Kahlua has not released exact ingredients in their coffee liqueur, but they do state that it should be safe to drink for people who stay gluten-free. If you would like to avoid Kahlua, there are other coffee liqueurs that are specifically labeled gluten-free. Substitute one of those liqueurs instead of Kahlua. For vodka, Three Olives states that their vodka is gluten-free, including their flavored vodkas like the espresso vodka. If you wish, you can substitute Tito’s or another gluten-free vodka.
