Wonderful as prescribed. The proper dilution with a little added water fully develops the wonderful drink. I’m cautious of lemons and limes as the consistency varies greatly. I’m a shaker for this drink and drop one Lexardo cherry in the bottom with a small amount of cherry syrup as a nest. No need to stir
Adding a squeeze of a lime wedge reduces the sweetness
I recommend using less cream to highlight the coffee.
1/2 the recipe amount or 1/3 oz

Following the Holidays, This is still a wonderful drink. I have been using a coffee liqueur The “Grind” that has a good strong coffee taste and less sugar.
