Instructions
- Select a chilled rocks glass and fill it generously with ice cubes to create a frosty foundation for this creamy cocktail.
- Carefully cascade vodka, coffee liqueur, and orange liqueur over the ice, allowing the spirits to mingle and create a vibrant base.
- Introduce fresh orange juice, gently stirring to incorporate the bright citrus notes throughout the drink.
- Delicately layer heavy cream by pouring it slowly over the back of a spoon, creating a luxurious stratified effect or thoroughly blend for a uniform, silky consistency.
- Embellish the cocktail with a delicate orange slice perched on the rim or sprinkle a whisper of orange zest across the surface for an aromatic flourish.
- For an indulgent finale, crown the drink with a billowing cloud of whipped cream, transforming the cocktail into a decadent dessert-inspired libation.
Notes
- Choose a chilled glass to keep the cocktail refreshingly cool and prevent quick ice melting.
- Use high-quality vodka for a smoother, more refined cocktail experience that elevates the entire drink.
- Experiment with different orange liqueurs like Cointreau or Grand Marnier to create subtle flavor variations that suit your taste preference.
- Make this cocktail dairy-free by substituting heavy cream with coconut cream or almond milk for a lighter, vegan-friendly version that maintains the creamy texture.
