Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp plus 2 tsp (25 ml) Espresso
  • 1 tbsp plus 1 tsp (20 ml) white vodka
  • 2 tsp (10 ml) orange spirits
  • Approx. 3 tbsp (40 ml) fresh heavy cream
  • 2 coffee beans
  • Ice cubes

The scent of spring fills this cocktail of coffee, vodka and orange liqueur: a flowery bouquet that is born ‘on the rocks’ and breaks free, powerful and sensual, under a soft blanket of shaken cream, decorated with just two coffee beans.

  1. Prepare the Espresso in a small cup.
  2. Put the ice cubes in the mixing glass, filling it 3/4 full. Add the white vodka, the orange spirits and, last of all, the Espresso. Mix quickly with the mixing spoon.
  3. Pour the cooled ingredients into the serving glass, filtering the ice with a strainer.
  4. Shake the cream, which should be very cold, in the mini shaker until it becomes quite thick.
  5. Gently rest the cream on the surface of the cocktail, making it run down the back of the mixing spoon.
  6. Garnish with two coffee beans, and serve.
