Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Sugar cubes
- 1 strip Lemon peel
- 4 strips Orange peel
- 6 pieces Cloves
- 1 whole Cinnamon stick
- 0.25 cup Cognac
- 2 tablespoons Orange liqueur (like Grand Marnier)
- 2 cups Strong hot coffee
Instructions
Place a heatproof serving bowl or chafing dish on a heat-safe area like a stovetop or flameproof table.
Add the sugar cubes to the bowl along with the lemon peel, orange peel, cloves, and cinnamon stick.
Pour the cognac and orange liqueur over the sugar and spices.
Carefully heat the bowl over medium-low heat until the mixture is warm but not boiling.
Using a long-handled lighter or match, carefully ignite the warm cognac mixture to flambé it. Stand back and ensure safety while doing so.
Stir gently with a long spoon, allowing the flames to burn off the alcohol while infusing the spices into the liquid.
Once the flames subside, slowly pour the hot coffee into the bowl, stirring to combine the flavors together.
Ladle the Café Brûlot into heatproof mugs or cups, straining out the spices and citrus as you serve.
Serve immediately and enjoy the rich, aromatic experience!
