We wanted to create a well-balanced drink that incorporates the bold, rich flavor of cold-brew coffee. This cocktail is a creamy, chocolatey, coffee drink that is perfect for any time of day and any occasion.
Ingredients:
- 2 oz cold-brew coffee or double shot of espresso
- 2 oz almond milk
- 1 oz chocolate syrup
- 1/2 oz simple syrup (or to taste) (recipe below)
- Ice cubes
- Whipped cream (optional)
- Cocoa powder (optional)
Instructions:
Fill a shaker with ice. Add the cold-brew coffee, almond milk, chocolate syrup, and simple syrup to the shaker. Shake well to mix and aerate. Strain the mixture into a martini glass (or a highball glass filled with ice). Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with cocoa powder, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy.
This coffee-based non-alcoholic cocktail has a smooth, creamy texture. The cold-brew coffee provides a bold, rich flavor; the almond milk adds a nutty, creamy quality; and the chocolate syrup contributes a sweet, chocolatey flavor. The whipped cream, if desired, provides a light, creamy texture, and the cocoa powder, if desired, adds a slightly bitter, chocolatey flavor.
