Candle in the Window

A warm, coffee-forward after-dinner cocktail where rum and a touch of bourbon mingle with chocolate and cherry liqueurs, finished with a silky floated layer of cream. It tastes rich and slightly sweet with pronounced coffee and chocolate notes while the cream softens the boozy warmth. Visually it's layered, dark coffee beneath a pale cream cap, making it both comforting and indulgent.

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Light Rum
  • 2 tsp Bourbon
  • 1 tsp Crème de Cacao Brun Liqueur
  • 1 tsp Cherry Brandy
  • 4 oz Coffee
  • 2 oz Heavy Cream

Instructions

  1. Combine the light rum, bourbon whiskey, dark creme de cacao, cherry brandy, and coffee in an Irish coffee cup or glass.
  2. Using the back of a teaspoon, carefully float the heavy cream over the drink to create a layered effect.
  3. Serve immediately, ensuring the cream remains on top.
