Siberian Ice Squares

This is sort of a White Russian on a stick (ouch).  Maybe I should call them ‘Russicles?’ Anyway they're just the thing for a hot summer day.

225ml (8fl oz) vanilla ice cream

4 tablespoons vodka

4 tablespoons fresh espresso, cooled

chilled Espresso Vodka (p.145, The Vodka Cookbook) or coffee brandy for drizzling

1. Whizz all ingredients in a blender. 
2. Fill an ice tray with the mixture and freeze at least 24 hours.
3. Add sticks when mixture is slushy, about 1 hour.
4. Carefully remove from ice tray and serve on chilled plates drizzled with cold Espresso Vodka (p.XX).
