Words of a Watchman

A delightful cocktail, inspired by the essence of the African Marula fruit and the classic White Russian, here’s a simple and elegant recipe:

Ingredients:

• 2 oz Amarula Cream Liqueur
• 1 oz Vodka (choose a smooth, premium variety for the best taste)
• 1 oz Cold Brew Coffee or Espresso (for a deep, rich flavor)
• Ice cubes
• Optional: A splash of milk or cream for extra richness
• Optional: Chocolate shavings or coffee beans for garnish

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Glass:
   • Fill a chilled old-fashioned glass or a short tumbler with ice cubes to keep your drink cool.
2. Mix the Drink:
   • In a shaker, combine the Amarula Cream Liqueur, vodka, and cold brew coffee or espresso. If you like your cocktails on the creamier side, add a splash of milk or cream.
   • Shake the mixture well until it’s thoroughly chilled. This also helps to blend the flavors seamlessly.
3. Serve:
   • Strain the mixture into your prepared glass, allowing the ice in the shaker to catch any large coffee grounds or ice shards.
   • If desired, garnish with a few chocolate shavings or a couple of coffee beans to enhance the visual appeal and add a hint of coffee aroma.
4. Enjoy:
   • Sip and enjoy the unique blend of flavors, where the creamy sweetness of Amarula meets the robust kick of coffee and vodka, creating a whisper of marula elegance in every taste.

“Marula Whisper” is perfect for a sophisticated evening or as a luxurious after-dinner treat. Its balance of flavors caters to those who appreciate a cocktail that’s both indulgent and refined.
