Influencer Shipra Hattangadi introduced a surprising twist to the classic rum and Coke combo by adding vanilla ice cream.

Known for her creative takes on traditional alcoholic drinks, Shipra previously went viral for her special Diwali series of cocktails inspired by popular desi sweets like Soan Papdi and Gulab Jamun. This time, she’s shaken things up even more with a refreshing new version of the beloved Old Monk drink.

In the video, Shipra demonstrates how to elevate the standard Rum and Coke cocktail by first pouring 60ml of Old Monk Rum into a glass and adding a can of Coca-Cola.

The game-changing moment comes when she adds a scoop of vanilla ice cream to the mix, stirring everything to create a frothy, creamy concoction. The combination of sweet rum, sparkling cola and creamy ice seems to have caught the attention of many cocktail lovers.

The video quickly went viral, with hundreds of likes on Instagram and a flood of enthusiastic comments. Old Monk fans and rum lovers have expressed their delight at the new recipe. “I want to have it right now,” one user wrote, while another added: “Monk with Coke is a classic, but with ice cream… I will definitely try it!”

However, not all reactions have been positive. A few commenters were less impressed, with one saying: “I threw up when I saw this cocktail.”

Despite the mixed reactions, Shipra’s inventive recipe has sparked a wave of enthusiasm among those who love to experiment with drinks and will certainly inspire many to try the rum and ice cream variation for themselves.
