Yes, yes – we know.
The concept of adding alcohol to coffee is nothing new.
But while you might have had a few Irish and Baileys coffees in your day, have you ever had an iced alcoholic coffee?
And if the answer is 'no' – well, then maybe it's about time.
This delicious version uses Amaretto and whipped cream – making it the perfect after-dinner treat or simply just when you fancy something sweet with a bit of a coffee hit to it.
Ingredients
- 4 cups strong brewed coffee
- 1/2 cup amaretto
- 1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons sugar, divided
