Coffee and alcohol are not only compatible, they complement each other wonderfully in various cocktails. A true coffee lover may be surprised by such an unexpected combination. And the look of foamy, effervescent cream-colored cocktails will not make you remain indifferent.
What alcohol goes with coffee
Whiskey is the most famous and commonly used alcoholic drink, which is the basis of coffee cocktails. Irish coffee is considered a classic. Slightly less popular are cocktails with the addition of wine, cognac, vodka and champagne. All of them have the right to life due to the multifaceted taste of the coffee itself and the rich aroma of the coffee itself. Various mixes will find their lover.
Most cocktails use freshly brewed espresso or americano. It has a tart taste and a bright aroma. An indispensable assistant in the manufacture of coffee drinks is the Beko CEG5331X coffee machine. The coffee brewed in this coffee machine will differ in lush foam, which will add airiness to the cocktail.
In addition to alcohol and coffee, whipped cream, milk, and sometimes cola are often added to cocktails. Coffee can be replaced with coffee liqueur with or without syrup. Freshly ground or instant coffee, vanilla, chocolate, lemon are used as decor. Cold refreshing cocktails are prepared with ice. On chilly evenings, it makes sense to cheer up and warm up with a hot coffee drink.
