The Golden Dream is a creamy cocktail with notes of orange and vanilla. Sweet and creamy like a boozy orange creamsicle, this cocktail is sure to be a dream! It is simple to make at home and only takes four ingredients.
The mixed drink starts by flavoring cream with both orange juice and orange liqueur. The addition of Galliano, which contains a vanilla spice flavor, takes the strong orange flavor to the next level. It is perfect for happy hour or an after-dinner delight.
Golden Dream Recipe
To make one Golden Dream cocktail, gather the following:
- 2/3 ounce Galliano
- 2/3 ounce Triple Sec
- 2/3 ounce Orange Juice (freshly squeezed is best)
- 1/3 ounce Heavy Cream (while it won’t be as creamy, swap your favorite milk alternative for a dairy-free cocktail)
How to Make a Golden Dream
The Golden Dream cocktail is a classic shake and strain mixed drink. Grab your cocktail shaker (or a mason jar if you don’t have a cocktail shaker) and fill it with ice. Add all of your ingredients to the shaker and give it a good shake. Strain into a glass and garnish with a fresh orange slice. Enjoy!
How to Serve
Serve your Golden Dream in a chilled martini glass. It is best enjoyed cold so prepare just prior to serving. Garnish with a fresh slice of orange and enjoy!
What is Galliano
Galliano is an Italian liqueur with a strong vanilla flavor and golden yellow hue. There isn’t a great substitute for it in this recipe, so it’s worth buying a bottle. Once you have Galliano give this Harvey Wallbanger recipe a try.
