How to Make a Bourbon Paralyzer

This is super easy to make, to get started you will need the following ingredients:

  • Coca-Cola (or similar product)
  • Bourbon
  • Kahlua
  • Milk (or cream)
  • Whipped Cream
  • Cherry for garnish

Start by adding the cola to the bottom of a glass. Then, in a separate container, mix together the cream (or milk), bourbon, and Kahlua. Doing this separately prevents the milk from curdling.

Serve with a topping of whipped cream and a cherry!
