Continuing with the cocktail series, on this occasion we step into the versatile world of coffee to talk about a simple yet delicious combination that mixes the kick of coffee, the refreshing qualities of ice, the delightful creaminess of milk (and/or cream itself), and the tang of Bailey’s Irish cream.

As you are about to see, this coffee combination is very easy to prepare. This is what you will need:

A cold Café Latte (approximately 1/3 of coffee and 2/3 cold milk).
5 oz. / 45 ml. Bailey’s Irish Cream
Ice cubes
Cream or whipped cream
Cocoa or cinnamon powder

First, put the ice cubes, the Bailey’s and the Café Latte in the presentation glass of your choice. Stir for a few seconds to mix all the ingredients. Then top up with cream/whipped cream and finish by sprinkling some cocoa or cinnamon powder on top.

Enjoy!
