    Anyone tried it? I haven't but will at some stage. Need to get special glasses though.....always a pain 😀

    Any other ideas out there for coffee based cocktails?

    Cheers.

    It's a lovely drink, I prefer to use my own sugar syrup rather than Kahlua. No need for fancy glasses.

    ....your own sugar syrup rather than Kahlua.........but Kahlua is the coffee liqueur component.

    I'm missing something here? 🤔

    Café Amore is nice, it contains, brandy, amaretto, espresso and whipped cream

    I make an awesome rif on this


    I strip back the Kahlua, and add some Creme De Cacao and Cointreau - make it a Chocolate Orange Espresso Martini

    My version uses whiskey instead of vodka. It's a little bit like a chilled irish coffee.

    You don't need special glasses btw, any stemmed glass will do, like a wine glass.

    That's another classic coffee cocktail btw, the Irish Coffee. yums.

    Makes it sickly sweet IMO. Espresso vodka syrup and ice is enough.
