Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Stout beer (e.g., Guinness)
- 2 tbsp Blackcurrant cordial
Instructions
Chill a pint glass or beer mug in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes, or until cold to the touch.
Pour 2 tablespoons of blackcurrant cordial into the bottom of the chilled glass.
Slowly pour 12 ounces of stout beer into the glass over an upside-down spoon to minimize foam and create a smooth blend.
Allow the beer and cordial to settle for a moment. The cordial will naturally infuse into the stout, creating a rich, dark drink with a subtle fruity undertone.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Black and Black!
