Salted Chocolate Dalgona Foam

This salted chocolate dalgona foam is doing a lot of heavy lifting. Thick, velvety, lightly sweet, and just salty enough to keep things in check, it adds texture and contrast to coffee cocktails that already lean rich.

On an Espresso Martini, it softens the bitterness and adds a dessert-like finish. On a Carajillo, it plays perfectly with the vanilla and spice, turning each sip into layers instead of one-note coffee.

Same drink, totally different experience once the foam hits the glass.

Cheers, y'all!

Salted Chocolate Dalgona Carajillo

Move over espresso martini…

#ad21+ Together with my friends at @licor43global, I’m going to show you how to make your new favorite carajillo this season.

If you want the full recipe card sent straight to your DMs, comment DALGONA below.

If you remember dalgona coffee from 2020, it blew up for a reason — instant coffee whipped with sugar and water until it turned into this thick, velvety foam you could spoon over milk. It was simple, a little over the top, and honestly… pretty delicious.

This cocktail takes that same idea and gives it the night-cap treatment with tequila, espresso, #Licor43, and a salted chocolate dalgona foam that sits right on top made with Licor 43’s chocolate liqueur. It’s rich, smooth, and way easier to drink than it looks.

Shop Licor 43 in time for the holidays at buylicor43.com

Please drink responsibly.

Cheers, y’all!

Mint Simple Syrup

I hear there’s some sort of 🐎 race tomorrow and a certain cocktail *cough* mint julep *cough* that requires mint syrup. Let me show you how easy that is to make.

Stay tuned later today so I can show you how to make the easiest julep you’ve ever made. Just in time for Derby Day!

“A lighter rendition of the classic, the Alive and Well is more of an “orange” Negroni. aromatic, floral, herbaceous, and slightly fruity backed with Campari’s signature bitterness; it’s a fun, late-summer sipper.”

Don’t forget you can grab this cocktail at @beautiful_south__ this week! Cheers y’all!

Charreada

¡Happy #CincoDeMayo, mis amigos!
.
I’m happy to bring you one of the most unique recipes from the Copper Bar the @patron Hacienda last week. We liked it so much, both @highproofpreacher and I posted about it without even coordinating haha Thanks to our dude @gingerbartender for providing the recipe!
.
A little background: The Charreada is a rodeo-like tradition dating back to the arrival of Spanish horsemanship to Mexico in the 16th century. Once a competition between Haciendas, it is now performed by teams of professional charros and is an important touchstone of Mexican culture. So there’s your fun fact for the day - now get out there and enjoy this day respectfully and responsibly, salud!
