Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 oz Brewed hot coffee
- 1 oz Dark creme de cacao
- 1 oz Kahlúa or coffee liqueur
- 1 oz Brandy
- 2 oz Heavy cream
- 1 tsp Granulated sugar (optional)
- 2 tbsp Whipped cream (optional for garnish)
- 1 tsp Grated chocolate or cocoa powder (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Brew 6 oz of hot coffee using your preferred method (drip, French press, etc.). Once brewed, keep it aside.
In a heatproof mug or glass, combine the brewed hot coffee, 1 oz dark creme de cacao, 1 oz Kahlúa or coffee liqueur, and 1 oz brandy. Stir well to mix the ingredients.
In a separate small bowl or measuring cup, lightly whisk together the heavy cream and granulated sugar (if using) to slightly thicken it. Do not fully whip it; it should be pourable.
Slowly pour the sweetened heavy cream over the back of a spoon onto the coffee mixture to create a layered effect. Alternatively, you can simply stir it into the drink for a creamier consistency.
Top the drink with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired. Add a sprinkle of grated chocolate or cocoa powder for an elegant finish.
Serve immediately. Sip carefully and enjoy the comforting warmth of this boozy coffee treat!
