Have you ever imagined a world without coffee in it? Coffee isn’t just a beverage or a morning ritual; it brings people together. It is a conversation starter, a culture builder, a stress-buster, a connector, and sometimes even a relationship mender. The strong aroma of coffee is enough to unite people from across the globe on the 1st of October every year to celebrate International Coffee Day. But how can you celebrate any occasion without a sweet accompaniment like chocolate?
Deep Dark Magnum Coffee Cocktail By Bartender Anand Thapa – MIMI Elevated Cocktails – Bar and Restaurant, Jaipur
Ingredients:
50 ml Irish whiskey
15 ml Patron Cafe
30 ml Coffee deduction
10 ml Maple syrup
Coffee foam
Dark chocolate chips
Shaving chocolate for garnish
Champagne saucer glass
Instructions:
Start by preparing your ingredients and equipment. Ensure that your champagne saucer glass is chilled, and have your coffee foam and dark chocolate chips ready.
In a mixing glass, combine the following ingredients:
50 ml Irish whiskey
15 ml Patron Cafe
30 ml Coffee deduction
10 ml Maple syrup
Insert a stirrer into the mixing glass and gently stir the mixture for approximately 60 seconds. This will help blend the flavors and chill the cocktail.
After stirring, strain the cocktail into your chilled champagne saucer glass. Make sure not to fill it to the brim, leaving some room for garnishes.
Prepare the rim of the champagne saucer glass by dipping it into coffee foam. The foam should lightly coat the rim of the glass.
To add an extra touch of elegance, gently press dark chocolate chips onto the coffee foam around the rim of the glass.
Finally, garnish your Deep Dark Magnum Coffee Cocktail with shaved chocolate on top of the drink. You can use a grater or a chocolate shaver to create delicate chocolate shavings.
Serve your Coffee Cocktail immediately and enjoy. This sophisticated coffee cocktail combines the rich flavors of Irish whiskey, coffee, and Patron Cafe with the sweetness of maple syrup, all beautifully complemented by the coffee foam and dark chocolate garnishes. It’s a delightful drink for those who appreciate a well-balanced and visually appealing cocktail.
