  • 2 tsp brown sugar
  • 150-180ml (5-6 oz) hot, strong, black coffee
  • Double cream on top

  • Toddy glass (or wine glass with firm walls)

MIXING METHOD:

First, warm the glass: fill it with hot water, leave for two minutes, then tip the water out. Pour in the sugar and whiskey, followed by the coffee. Stir. Using the back or bowl of a bar spoon, float the cream on top.

  • 30ml (1 oz) Drambuie

EQUIPMENT:

  • Stirring spoon
  • Tumbler

MIXING METHOD:

Fill the glass with ice, add all of the ingredients, and stir. Garnish with a lemon rind in the glass and a cherry.

Godfather Cocktail

As its name suggests, this is the definitive Italian-American cocktail. Although the textures of US Bourbon and Italian amaretto are quite different, in this mix they complement each other perfectly; the result is a big, strong cocktail, with a small, citrus kick. It is best-suited for drinking late at night.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 30ml (1 oz) Bourbon whiskey
  • 30ml (1 oz) amaretto liqueur

EQUIPMENT:

  • Stirring spoon
  • Tumbler

MIXING METHOD:

Pour the Bourbon and amaretto into the glass and stir. Add three or four ice cubes and serve with slices of star fruit lime.
