Begin by preparing a festive rim for your glass: crush the candy canes into fine crumbs and place them on a small plate.
Wet the rim of a martini glass with a bit of water or simple syrup, then dip it into the crushed candy cane pieces, coating the entire rim. Set the glass aside.
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes.
Pour the vanilla vodka, peppermint schnapps, white crème de cacao, and half-and-half into the shaker.
Shake well for about 20-30 seconds until the mixture is well chilled and frothy.
Carefully strain the mixture into the prepared martini glass.
Top with a dollop of whipped cream for an extra creamy touch.
Garnish with a whole candy cane by hooking it on the rim of the glass or laying it across the whipped cream.
Serve immediately and enjoy this holiday-themed cocktail!
