AYCD Brunch: New Cocktail

Before finally checking out Eataly on Saturday, I made myself a nice large pot of coffee at home.  The best friend was in town from Tampa so we had a full day of sightseeing and shopping planned.

Fast forward several hours, and I seemed to have left half of my coffeepot un-drunk! Since it was time to start getting ready for a crazy night around the City, I decided to drink it instead of my typical 5-hour energy.  But then, rather than drinking it with my milk and sugar, I had the most amazing “Aha” moment:

This would be really great with some Kahlua in it..

What should I name it?

So I made this incredible concoction:

  • 2 shots of Kahlua
  • 2 shots of Vodka
  • 1.5 cups of coffee
  • Dash of cinnamon
  • .5 tsp of cane sugar

And WHAM!  The most delicious drink ever.  I gladly sipped this new cocktail and even made some shots for the girls before heading out.

Although it was delicious as a pre-drinking cocktail with some caffeine to keep you awake, it would also be a GREAT new Brunch cocktail.

This weekend, I have a goal to order this new drink at Brunch.. although it may bit a bit pricey.
Drink up kids!

If you have any recommendations for the new drink’s name, please let me know!

Cheers!
