Ingredients

Method

  1. 01Combine bourbon, cold brew, and honey syrup in a shaker and fill it with ice. If you brewed the coffee fresh, let it cool first — hot coffee melts the ice and thins the drink.
  2. 02Shake hard for 15 seconds, until the outside of the shaker frosts. The shake is what gives it the foam on top.
  3. 03Strain into a rocks glass over ice, or serve it up in a coupe. Float three coffee beans on the foam.

Tasting Notes

Coffee and bourbon share a natural affinity — both are dark, complex, and best appreciated slowly. The honey syrup ties them together, and the apricot finish adds a stone-fruit brightness that keeps the coffee from taking over. Cold brew keeps it smooth where espresso can turn sharp. This one has momentum built into it.
