If you spend your day by your desk surviving on coffee and fancy a liquid lunch with an extra kick then why not try some coffee inspired cocktails? For once we won’t be raiding the wine cellar but instead will be using some strong spirits with fresh brewed coffee for a warming and punchy way to wake up….
The top of our list of course is the espresso martini. The especially strong and stylish cocktail may look like a coffee with cream but the Kahula and vodka makes it a seriously special way to rise and shine.
Pour everything into a cocktail shaker, shake and flare if you dare then strain into a martini glass. Decorate with the coffee beans and drink. Simple!
Another one that is from the bar and not the wine cellar, this one requires a little flare and less of the flaring..Next on the dream list is the Hot White Russian. A warm spin on the cold cocktail, this one should not be taken lightly. With a strong Russian vodka base, this will warm you up and have you wide-eyed and bushy tailed…and slightly merry.
This one requires a little heat so get the saucepan ready and add all the ingredients apart from the whipped cream and get the heat on and stir. Remember we are warming and not cooking so don’t let it boil. Pour into a glass mug and top with cream. Maybe not so much for the office but if you are working from home on a late one then get this on the hob as a late night treat to keep you pumped through the night.
Back to basics now with a true staple cocktail dating back to the 19th century. Everyone has heard of an old-fashioned, but what goes better with whisky or bourbon than coffee? For years there have been spin-offs with whisky shots and coffee. Try a coffee old fashioned with this simple recipe.
This is a simple mix, throw everything into a cocktail shaker which ice and shake, strain into a glass, add some ice and a twist of orange to make it look pretty.
We know we know…the wine cellar is looking full and inviting and its just sitting there staring at you while you passionately pay all you attention to the coffee machine. If you sheepishly are edging towards your under stairs custom wine display and none of the spirits will do you justice today then fear not. we have the perfect combo to try.
If you are a serious coffee aficionado and have a frothing coffee machine, add a little port to the milk as you steam and froth for your Cappuccino. Pink Port froth is delicious and the perfect way to combine the world’s most amazing liquids.
