Chocolate Milkshake Cocktail

How easy is this recipe. It reminds me of a grown up root beer float.  I modified this recipe from Midwest Living to include vodka and Frangelico to make it truly festive.  All you do is pour chocolate milk over ice cream and serve it up in a martini glass to make a fun holiday dessert with a kick. :)

Ingredients
  
  Coarse sugar
  Unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup  chocolate or chocolate chip ice cream
1-1/3 cups chocolate milk
1 ounce vodka
1/2 ounce Frangelico hazelnut liquor

1 teaspoon  vanilla
  Chocolate curls (of course I use Sulpice Chocolat's gourmet chocolate bars)
  Maraschino cherries

Directions
1. Using 4 chilled martini glasses, lightly rub a damp paper towel around the rim of the glass to slightly dampen. Place sugar in a shallow dish; place cocoa powder in another shallow dish. Invert glasses and dip in sugar and then in cocoa powder to coat rims. Divide ice cream equally among martini glasses.
2. In a small pitcher combine chocolate milk, vodka, hazelnut liquor and vanilla. Pour over ice cream. Top with chocolate curls and cherries. Makes 4 servings.
