Milk punch is a creamy cocktail spiked with bourbon + vanilla—and Chef Bobby Flay likes his frozen + with coffee.

"A holiday tradition in the Deep South, milk punch is a creamy cocktail spiked with bourbon, vanilla, and occasionally spices. I like mine frozen until slushy and braced with coffee. Chicory coffee, another Southern staple, is a natural choice here." –Bobby Flay
