Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz strong brewed coffee
- 1 oz sambuca liqueur
- 2 tbsp heavy cream
- 1 tsp sugar
- 0.25 tsp ground cinnamon
- 3 pieces coffee beans or star anise (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Brew a strong cup of coffee (approximately 8 oz) using your preferred method, such as a French press, coffee maker, or pour-over. Set aside.
In a small saucepan over low heat, gently warm the heavy cream, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. Do not bring to a boil.
Pour the brewed coffee into a heat-resistant serving glass or coffee mug.
Stir in the sambuca liqueur and sugar until fully dissolved.
Pour the warmed heavy cream over the back of a spoon so it gently layers on top of the coffee mixture.
Sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon over the cream for garnish.
Optionally, garnish with a few coffee beans or a small piece of star anise for an added visual touch and subtle aroma.
Serve immediately and enjoy your luxurious Sambuca Cafe Ole!
