History

This was my attempt to create a drink that brought out the bitter aspects of coffee while downplaying the sweetness. I also wanted to avoid milk or actual brewed coffee.

  • Upped Kahlra decreased fernet — ★★★★
  • A bit sweet. Will raise the Fernet Branca and decrease the Creme de Cacao to a short drizzle.

Comments

a more sophisticated black russian.  probably wont interfere with elections.

Nice but I thought it needed a bit more depth. I added 1/2 oz. Blackstrap rum for sweetness and body and 1/2 bsp. Yellow Chartreuse for a little more zing. Probably could have accomplished the same with just a bit more Kahlua too ;)
