Grasshopper Coffee

Total Time: 5 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 2
  • 1/4 cup green creme de menthe
  • 1/4 cup tia maria or 1/4 cup other coffee liqueur
  • 1 1/2 cups hot & strong coffee
  • 1/4 cup whipping cream

Recipe

  • 1 divide the 2 liqueurs equally between 2 tall glasses & mix well.
  • 2 fill ea glass equally w/the hot coffee & top w/whipped cream.
  • 3 cooks tip #1: the recipe suggested a garnish using the thin "after dinner style" choc mints cut diagonally & inserted into the whipped cream topping. the pic of same is visually stunning, but simple choc shavings will work equally well for me. :-).
  • 4 cooks tip #2: "use coffee strong enough so as not to taste watery or be too diluted by the liqueurs, but weaker than espresso.".
