The comment in the article describing this as "just what it says on the tin" is bang on. Without wishing to sound rude, this is probably the most unremarkable cocktail I've ever had on this website. It was made a lot more interesting with an ounce of rye, but even still, I just can't recommend it. You can do so much more interesting.

I used 50ml of coffee liqueur and 10 ml of cacao liquor and as sweetner,almond syrop. The Taste of chocolat coffee and almond makes it more interesting in my tate

Fantastic after-dinner/dessert cocktail! Indeed, it's sweet and sour coffee. But I have a feeling this may not work as well with a really dry coffee liqueur, though I could be wrong.

It’s an odd one for sure, not wholly unpleasant though!

Was so skeptical at first but have had this bottle of Patron XO Cafe sitting at home for 4 years. Now I know what to do with it!
