  • Fine-mesh strainer
  • Tall glass or rocks glass
  • Bar spoon
  • Grater or microplane
  • Milk frother

Ingredients

  • 1 oz Frangelico hazelnut liqueur
  • 1 oz vodka
  • 1 oz coffee liqueur Kahlúa preferred
  • 2 oz freshly brewed espresso
  • 1 oz milk or Baileys Irish Cream
  • 1 tsp sugar optional
  • ice cubes
  • whipped cream optional
  • freshly grated nutmeg for garnish

Instructions

  • Pour Frangelico, vodka, coffee liqueur, espresso, milk (or Baileys), and sugar into a cocktail shaker.
  • Add a good amount of ice cubes.
  • Shake for about 20 seconds until cold.
  • Strain into a tall glass or rocks glass filled with fresh ice.

Notes

Fresh espresso enhances the flavor. Adjust sweetness to taste or swap milk for Baileys for extra creaminess. Frangelico is key for nutty flavor, but other hazelnut liqueurs can work. Use decaf for an evening-friendly version.
