Servings: 1 Serving
Calories: 384kcal
Ingredients
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 2 ounce Kahlua coffee liqueur
- 1 ounce Amaretto
Instructions
- Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice.
- Pour in the heavy cream, Kahlúa, and Amaretto.
- Shake vigorously for about 10 seconds, then strain into a glass filled with fresh ice. Garnish with a pinch of ground cinnamon, if desired.
Notes
- Use cold ingredients: Chilled cream and liqueurs create the smoothest, coldest cocktail and reduce dilution from the ice.
- Shake well: Shake for at least 10 seconds to fully combine the cream and liqueurs while creating a silky, frothy texture.
- Use fresh ice: Fresh ice in both the shaker and serving glass keeps the cocktail cold without watering it down too quickly.
- Customize the sweetness: Add a little extra Amaretto for a sweeter almond flavor or increase the Kahlúa for a richer coffee taste.
- Garnish before serving: A dusting of cinnamon, chocolate shavings, toasted almonds, or whipped cream makes this simple cocktail feel extra special.
