Corretto Alla Grappa

An espresso corretto is a shot of espresso “corrected” with a shot of spirit or liquor, usually grappa, but sometimes sambuca, brandy, or cognac. The shot is usually added before serving, but you can also serve it on the side.

Ron Dulce

Caramel is a flavour that goes seriously well with coffee. This recipe embraces that taste combination with creamy dulce de leche, added coffee flavour from the sweet Kahlua, and a warming sensation from the rum.

Rusty Sheridans

Inspired by the Rusty Nail, the most famous Drambuie cocktail, this recipe leads with whisky, but adds Sheridans for sweetness and to make the coffee flavour more pronounced. For a brighter note, let the lemon twist infuse in the espresso.

Irish Coffee

Joe Sheridan created Irish coffee in 1942, and it has since become the most famous coffee-based drink in the world. It mixes coffee (strong as a friendly hand) and Irish whiskey (smooth as the wit of the land) with sugar and cream.

Cognac Brûlot

This variation of the classic New Orleans cahè brûlot uses either cognac or brandy as the spirit. Cahè brûlot was invented by Jules Alciatore at Antoine’s Restaurant during Prohibition – the citrus and spice were a clever way to conceal alcohol.

And you’ll see in this list of different types of hot coffee cocktails, coffee works with everything from vodka and rum to tequila and even gin.

IRISH COFFEE

1. Using the technique of Filter Pour-Over, brew 120ml (4 fl oz) strong coffee in a pour-over filter.

2. Pour the coffee and 2 teaspoons of brown sugar into the glass, and stir until the sugar dissolves.

3. Add 30ml (1 fl oz) Irish whiskey and stir. Lightly whip 30ml (1 fl oz) cream until it thickens but doesn’t become stiff.

4. SERVE IT UP - Float the cream on top of the coffee by pouring it gently off the back of a spoon, and serve.

FILTER POUR-OVER

Brewing through a paper filter is an easy way to make coffee straight into a mug or serving vessel. As the grounds are easily disposed of with the paper filter, the method is also clean and stress-free.

HOW FILTER POUR-OVER WORKS

1. Rinse the paper filter well. Preheat the filter holder and jug or mug with warm water. Discard the water.

2. Place the jug or mug onto a scale. Place the filter on top, and tare.

3. Add the coffee to the filter and tare again. A good ratio to start with is 60g (2oz) coffee to 1 litre (1.75 pints) water.

4. Saturate the grounds with a little water at preferably 90–94ºC (195–200ºF) and leave them to swell for about 30 seconds to allow the “bloom” to settle.

5. Keep pouring water over in a slow, continuous stream or in portions until you have poured over the right volume of water. Serve
when the water has filtered through.

COGNAC BRÛLOT

1. Pour 30ml (1 fl oz) cognac into the glass and keep it warm using a brandy warmer. Add 1 teaspoon brown sugar, 1 cinnamon stick, 1 clove, 1 lemon twist, and 1 orange twist.

2. Brew about 150ml (5 fl oz) coffee using a French press, AeroPress, or brewer of your choice. Pour it into the glass. If the angle of the snifter means the coffee will overflow, take it oh the brandy warmer stand before filling.

3. SERVE IT UP - Stir with the cinnamon stick until the sugar is dissolved and the ingredients have infused, and serve.

Hot Boozy Coffee

Ingredients

0.5 shot Brandy
0.5 shot Grand Marnier
0.5 shot Kahlua
4-5 oz hot coffee
1 orange peel
0.5 cup whipped cream
0.5 tsp sugar

Instructions

Put the whipped cream in either a bowl and whip with a whisk (electric or otherwise) or you can put it in the blender. Whip until soft peaks and then add sugar to taste.

Take your orange peel and lightly "burn" with a lighter. This will help the oils come out and will flavour the coffee later.

Pour the brandy, grand Marnier, Kahlua, and freshly brewed coffee into a mug. Stir with the orange peel. Spoon some whipped cream on top and enjoy right away!
