Cowboy Coffee

2 1⁄2 oz Whiskey, Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey
1⁄2 oz Demerara syrup (1:1)
2 ds Bitters, Angostura
2 Coffee bean (dark roast)
1 twst Lemon peel (as garnish)
Instructions

Crush coffee beans and shake with other ingredients. Fine strain into a Champagne flute. Express peel and garnish with twist and a third coffee bean.

Notes

Stranahan's has a sui generis profile, being distilled purely from malted barley (like single malt Scotch) and then aged in charred new oak barrels for two years (like bourbon). The closest approximation might be a Scotch aged in "virgin" (new) oak, of which there are a couple; otherwise a bourbon or rye would be closer in character than a standard ex-bourbon barrel Scotch or Irish.

  • Used Jim Beam. Perhaps better with tastier bourbon. Could be more interesting with rye - I think the spiciness of the rye would work better.

Please look up Carrie Amelia Nation, if for no other reason than to appreciate the irony of this cocktail name!
