Yields
10 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups vodka
- 1 cup coffee liqueur
- 1 cup cream
- 10 coffee beans (for garnish)
Instructions
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in 2 ounces of vodka and 1 ounce of coffee liqueur.
Add 1 ounce of cream and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds to combine and chill the ingredients.
Strain the mixture into 10 chilled glasses filled with ice. Garnish each glass with a coffee bean and serve immediately.
Notes
Use high-quality vodka and coffee liqueur for the best flavor. You can also use heavy cream or half-and-half instead of regular cream for a richer texture.
If you’re feeling fancy, try drizzling chocolate syrup on top of the drink for a decorative touch.
Make sure to chill the glasses in the freezer before filling them with the mixture to keep the drinks cold. You can also make this recipe in a pitcher for a larger crowd, just multiply the ingredients accordingly.
Don’t over-shake the mixture, 15-20 seconds is enough to emulsify the cream and combine the ingredients.
