Ingredients
- 3/4 oz 151-proof Rum
- 1/4 oz Triple Sec
- 1-1/2 oz Kahlua
- Fresh brewed coffee
- Lightly whipped cream
- Nutmeg
You will also need a heat proof serving glass! Be sure to use well made coffee using quality beans. Note: You will absolutely need "overproof" rum (151 proof or greater) to ignite and melt the sugar rim. Anything less will not work.
Method
- Wipe the rim of your (tempered) glass with a lime wedge, and then dredge in sugar to coat the rim.
- Add the overproof rum and ignite. Tilt the glass and turn slowly to melt and caramelize the sugar. Be careful to not burn down your kitchen or bar!
- Then add the Triple Sec and Kahlua, and fill with coffee, and stir.
- Use a small jar to gently shake the heavy whipping cream to thicken. You want the cream to be thick, but still slightly runny.
- Top with the thick cream and finish with freshly grated nutmeg.
