Swap the espresso martini for this decadent (but not-too-sweet) coffee cocktail. At first glance, this chocolate-infused medley may look like a dessert cocktail, but the addition of bitter elements like stout and coffee liqueur help balance out the condensed milk for a not-too-sweet bevvy. If you haven’t made a flip before, you might be surprised by the egg, which is used to emulsify the ingredients and create a rich texture.
6 oz stout
2 oz Jumping Goat Cold Brewed Coffee Liqueur or other coffee liqueur
1 egg
1 tbsp sweetened condensed milk
2 biscotti, for garnish
2 shaved Soul Chocolate Mayan drinking chocolate, for garnish
This recipe includes raw egg for richness and a silky texture; use the freshest you can find and crack just before mixing this drink.
We opted for spiced drinking chocolate for a touch of heat, but any chocolate variety will work well in this recipe.
