recipe: Bottoms Up. Time for Thanksgiving Digestif Cocktail

Recipe: Thanksgiving Digestif

The mysterious bitter oily flavor of real freshly brewed espresso, balanced out by the sweetness of good rum, and a tad of the Italian orange bitter digestif known as Ramazzoti is the beginnings of a perfect after dinner cocktail drink for post thanksgiving dinner.  Sweeten to taste with stevia, top with whipped cream and you’ll be ready for your holiday nap.

4 oz freshly brewed hot espresso

1-1/2 oz dark rum

½ oz ramazzoti orange bitters

1 packet stevia (or to taste)

Whipped cream

Orange rind twist

Pour hot, brewed coffee into a tall glass coffee cup.  Add rum, bitters, stevia.  Top with whipped cream. Twist orange on top.  It’s that simple.
