Dom Pedro
Dom Pedro is a divine, drinking dessert with an ice-cream base which can be served as not only a drink, but for dessert as well
MSG intended for our 21+ readers only
You will find this absolutely decadent drink on just about any South-African restaurant’s dessert menu.
It is however a little different from restaurant to restaurant in that some use Amarula Liqueur and others would use Kahlua Liqueur.
I prefer Amarula as I think it is the most wonderful, exotic liqueur around !
It has been said that the Marula fruit (the overripe fruits) falls from the trees in the wild.
The elephants then eat it and well, let’s just say they’re a happy bunch after a Marula treat !
This is one of the easiest desserts which you can drink, although you might get a light bout of brain-freeze should you drink too quickly.
So thick and frothy ! One really just want to sip away after a hearty meal !

omg i love the dom pedro was well soo good queen
The name is Don Pedro. Don is a polite way to say Mr.
Fernando, yes that is true when used as a Spanish Don. However, in South-Africa we use DOM Pedro ( noun phrase ) and it is derived from the Latin Dominus which is also Master of a household, therefore the Portuguese Dom means more or less the same as the Spanish Don 😊 (different countries, different spellings)
Looks like a delicious, icy treat! Would love for you to share at Fridays Unfolded this week!

I will have to make this. Thanks for the recipe. Thanks for linking up at Tell Me About It Tuesday. We hope you hop over and share with us again next week.
Good Morning Linda, I love Amarula. A South African friend introduced me to Amarula when I lived in Cyprus. It was pretty hard to get hold of at the time, but when it did arrived on the shelves, it disappeared very quickly. This dessert looks very enjoyable and one I know I will love. I have to say Linda, I agree with the elephants… Amarula is divine.
Best Wishes
