Amaretto Cream Coffee
(Disclaimer: If you live in the United States, you must be 21 years of age or order to buy or drink alcohol)
You will be proud to serve this drink to your guests on a cold evening. This drink is so good!
This is also the kind of drink that you will want to enjoy as you cuddle up on the sofa with a good book or interesting tv show.
This drink is as easy to make as it is delicious.
Here are the Steps to a delightful Amaretto Cream Coffee:
Pour in the Amaretto Liquor into the glass. Amaretto has such a lovely aroma and a delicate bitter-sweet almond flavor. The smell is intoxicatingly beautiful. In Italy, Amaretto is often added to deserts.
Pour in the Irish Cream Liquor into the glass. The Irish Cream Liquor is sweet enough so you don’t need to add any sugar. Irish Cream is basically a whiskey made with cream, so you will won’t need to mix any cream into your coffee either.
Next, add the coffee. The coffee should be sufficiently hot in order for the flavors to blend properly.
Lastly, top with whipped cream. The whipped cream can be homemade by you, or can be store bought. The store bought works well in a pinch, but for whipped cream that stands up better to the hot coffee, go with the homemade whipped cream. I have included my recipe for Whipped Cream Frosting and for my Spiced Whipped Cream Frosting below.
Enjoy responsibly!
