Snow on Sand: Hot Coffee Cocktail w/rum, orange liqueur, and amaretto cream

Course Drinks

Servings drinks

2 ounces amaretto
4 ounces whipping cream
3 ounces dark rum
2 ounces orange liqueur I used a homemade concoction similar to Grand Marnier, as I recall triple sec can sometimes curdle cream though since the whipped is on top that shouldn’t matter
10-16 ounces coffee

shake up your whipped cream (See note above) by combining the cream and the amaretto liqueur in a lidded jar and shaking it until it’s thick enough to be softly scooped or poured but still rest on top of your coffee before lazily swirling into the drink in hypnotic eddies
combine 1 1/2 ounce of rum and 1 ounce of orange liqueur in a heat proof glass
top with 5 or so ounces of hot black coffee
garnish with a generous dollop of amaretto cream (2-4 ounces, I’m not gonna judge either way, but if you use less you will have leftover whipped cream, but fear not because it’s in the glass jar you can easily re-incorporate it with a few good shakes tomorrow or the next day)
repeat
