Chestnut Coffee Cocktail
Creamy, nutty, and cozy, this after-dinner drink combines chestnut liqueur, strong coffee, and a splash of cream for a decadent, slightly boozy treat.

- Coffee maker
- Measuring cup
- Spoon
- Irish coffee glass or mug
Ingredients
- 1.5 oz chestnut liqueur
- 1 oz bourbon or brandy
- 4 oz strong brewed coffee hot
- 1 oz heavy cream or milk
- whipped cream for topping, optional
- grated nutmeg or cinnamon for garnish
Instructions
- Pour chestnut liqueur and bourbon into a heatproof glass or mug.
- Add hot coffee and stir to combine.

Notes
Use milk instead of cream for a lighter drink. Swap bourbon for brandy for a sweeter flavor. For a cold version, use cold brew and shake with ice, then strain.
