Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon Amaretto liqueur or to taste
  • 1 cup hot black coffee preferably brewed from whole bean coffee
  • 1-2 teaspoons brown sugar or to taste
  • whipped cream optional, a dollop
  • cinnamon optional, a sprinkle

Instructions

Coffee

  • Start by brewing a strong cup of coffee using your preferred method—whether that's a French press, espresso machine, or even cold brew.
  • Pour a shot of Amaretto liqueur into your coffee. This Italian liqueur has a smooth, nutty taste that pairs beautifully with coffee's natural richness.
  • Stir in brown sugar to add a touch of sweetness. You can adjust the sweetness to your liking, depending on how much of the little bitter notes you want to balance out from the coffee.

Option for Topping

  • A dollop of whipped cream
  • A sprinkle of cinnamon (optional)
  • Or sprinkle of coco powder (optional)

Notes

If it's a hot summer day and you're craving coffee, an Amaretto iced coffee can provide a refreshing twist. Brew your coffee strong, allow it to cool, and then mix it with ice, a shot of Amaretto, and a little bit of almond extract for an added depth of flavor.
