Nightjar

Carl Amoth's Bar

Makes 2 cocktails

A creamy nightcap—marula cream and toasted-hazelnut Frangelico over fresh espresso. Dessert in a glass.

Ingredients
  • 3 oz Amarula cream liqueur
  • 2 oz fresh espresso, cooled
  • 1 oz Frangelico
Method
  1. Shake all three hard with ice until cold and frothy.
  2. Double strain into chilled coupes.
  3. Dust with grated nutmeg or coffee; three beans to garnish.

Note. A creamy nightcap—keep the espresso cooled so it doesn’t thin the foam.
