This Kahlua and Irish Whiskey Frozen Cocktail is great all year round but I think especially for St. Paddy’s Day!
I originally intended to make a Kahlua based cocktail using the components of a White Russian but decided to segue and came up with a combination for a Kahlua and Irish Whiskey Frozen Cocktail that would also honor two upcoming special days. One is obvious; something for St Paddy’s Day is imperative. This year though we’ve got more to celebrate.
Thinking ahead and in honor of our moving our clocks the same direction, Kahlua has asked me to help celebrate National ‘Cocktail Your Coffee Day’ on Monday (#cocktailyourcoffee). Knowing we’ll all be a bit wearier as we navigate through the first day of Daylight Savings; we’re thinking your coffee needs a bit of Kahlua to celebrate this eventful day; why not a Kahlua and Irish Whiskey Frozen Cocktail.
Vodka was out, espresso was in and I’m telling you this is one great dessert cocktail (she says as she sits here sipping it this morning; please promise to ignore any typos!). Join us and let us know when you’ve taken a sip of your favorite coffee cocktail in an effort to thwart the effects of Daylight Savings!
Of course it can be as simple as just pouring a shot into a hot cup of coffee, but if you want some additional ideas on incorporating Kahlua with coffee, visit Kahlua’s website and consider an Espresso Martini or Café Con Leche Iced.
I’m not sure I will ever mix Kahlua and vodka with cream again; this was such a successful veering off the beaten path; I LOVE it. Richer and less biting with the Irish Liqueur instead of vodka; it’s truly a winner.
I think good enough to plan twice. Have one on Monday and celebrate everything about the advent of spring, including days that will be warm enough to sit outdoors in the evening and sip a cool, icy cocktail. I can’t wait after this winter, how about you?
Still, make sure you bring it into rotation for St. Patrick’s Day too…what a great way to add some Irish Whiskey to a celebration; I just can not believe I’ve not done this before!
