The taste reminded me of marzipan, which I usually enjoy with strong coffee. ☕️
I liked it as a dessert cocktail. Thanks for sharing! 🙂🤝

Looks like this and the Toasted Almond are different amounts of the same ingredients.

I am not a coffee drinker, but do use Flor de Cana Spresso Coffee Liqueur from Nicaragua which has a rum base that I do like. This was outstanding as an after-dinner cocktail. Since I did not have coffee beans, I did a dusting of freshly grated nutmeg. It was perfect.

Used a honey-almond liqueur which really mellowed the coffee flavor. Very enjoyable.
