Ok, we are running behind for “Mixology Monday.” But it’s all good. This recipe is a winner. Considering that the temperature has been in the mid to high 70’s and the air conditioner went belly up at work, it was a little bit of a challenge to mentally shift my brain up North into the cold weather. But we worked through all that to bring you the “Monk’s Coffee”. This warmer features no less than four (count ‘em) liqueurs that you can combine with your coffee bean of choice. We happened to have Starbuck’s Breakfast Blend on hand.
The Monk’s Coffee is:
1/4 oz. Amaretto
1/4 oz. creme de cacao
1/4 oz. Frangelico (hazelnut liqueur)
1/4 oz. Cointreau (orange liqueur)
Add the liqueurs to a cup of coffee, stir, and top with whipped cream. My wife added the orange zest on top for a very nice touch. Enjoy!
