Equipment

  • Coffee mug or heatproof glass
  • Measuring jigger or shot glass
  • Stirring spoon
  • Kettle or coffee maker
  • Hand mixer or whisk
  • Small bowl

Ingredients

  • 1 cup hot brewed coffee
  • 1.5 oz amaretto liqueur
  • 1-2 tsp sugar optional, to taste
  • 2-3 tbsp whipped cream
  • chocolate shavings or cocoa powder optional, for topping

Instructions

  • Brew a cup of hot coffee and pour into mug or glass.
  • Add the amaretto.
  • If desired, stir in sugar until dissolved.
  • Top with whipped cream.
  • Sprinkle with chocolate shavings or cocoa powder if desired.
  • Serve immediately while hot.

Notes

Double the amaretto or add a shot of espresso for a stronger drink. Use fresh coffee for best flavor. Homemade whipped cream is ideal but canned works in a pinch. Chilling your glass before topping helps keep whipped cream from melting quickly.
