I don't like the taste of coffee is there something I can substitute or will I even taste the coffee.

As Avery mentioned, this tastes like an alcoholic milkshake...and it's delicious, if you're in the mood for that. If you're worried about calories and/or overindulging, I reckon this could easily be split into 2 old fashioned glasses to share with someone.

I reached #69 on my Hall of Fame challenge and felt like I *had* to do this one for #69. And...yeah sure, it certainly tastes like a several hundred calorie alcoholic milkshake. It's absolutely delicious as long as you look at the ingredient list and go "yup, I would love an alcoholic milkshake and a sugar coma right now" and not expect anything else.

A fitting choice! Congratulations on your progress. I'm on the lookout for another cocktail to add to our Hall of Fame to take it (back to) to #291. Suggestions gladly received.

Needed a dessert for some friends who came over for dinner so this was perfect! I used Kahlua which is a little bit sweeter than Bebo, so I used a little bit less of it (1 oz) and added a little bit more Vodka. One might say it was an Extra Noisy Screaming Orgasm.
