I grew up with my dad and mom consuming a contemporary cup of espresso very first thing within the morning, and the identical factor earlier than going to mattress at evening. My household referred to as this recipe “cafe fourb”, which implies “loopy espresso” in Italian. After I grew to become of age, I too, picked up this behavior and I nonetheless discover it essentially the most tasteful, calming, pleasant cup of contemporary espresso with the reminiscence of my dad and mom having fun with that quiet, satisfying drink. Following is the recipe:
- 1 cup contemporary espresso (may very well be decaf if most well-liked)
- 1 shot of excellent bourbon
- 1 teaspoon sugar
Espresso + Bourbon = Cafe Fourb
When selecting a superb, any degree of roast will work. I’ve used 100 proof bourbons with this recipe. One good cheap 100-proof bourbon is Knob Creek. However bear in mind, no a couple of cup every time. Attempt it, my buddy, assure you too will take pleasure in it.
Oh, as an added attraction, I might at all times have a jar of the whiskey filled with fats Bing cherries soaking till every cherry was equal to 1 shot. Gracious sake, all people beloved my loopy espresso!
