New Romantic

My wife came home one Friday and wanted a White Russian but we were out of Kahlua and regular vodka. Intent on bringing a smile to her face after a long week of work I had a look in the liquor cabinet and attempted to create the next best thing from the slim pickings we had. What I created she decided to call "New Romantic."

1 part Amaretto
1 part Vanilla Vodka
A glug or or two of half-and-half
Ice
2 maraschino cherries

In a shaker add ice, amaretto, vodka and half-and-half and give it a good vigorous shake. Pour through strainer into a tumbler glass and garnish with two maraschino cherries on a toothpick.
