Ingredients
- 6 oz Freshly brewed coffee
- 1.5 oz Brandy
- 1 oz Dark crème de cacao
- 1 oz Heavy cream
- 1 tsp Granulated sugar
- 0.5 tsp Cocoa powder
- 1 pinch Grated nutmeg
Directions
Step 1
Brew a fresh cup of coffee (about 6 oz) and set it aside to stay warm.
Step 2
In a heat-resistant coffee glass or mug, add the brandy and dark crème de cacao.
Step 3
Pour the freshly brewed coffee over the alcohol and gently stir to combine.
Step 4
In a separate small bowl, whip the heavy cream and granulated sugar together using a whisk or a small hand frother until slightly thickened but still pourable.
Step 5
Slowly pour the whipped cream over the back of a spoon so it floats on top of the coffee mixture, creating a creamy layer.
Step 6
Dust the top of the cream with cocoa powder and a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg for garnish.
Step 7
Serve immediately with a small spoon for stirring, and enjoy your luxurious Italian Inn Coffee Alexander!
