Revolver
Recipe:
- 60ml bourbon
- 15ml coffee liqueur
- 2 dashes orange bitters
- (optional:) 2.5ml simple syrup (or demerara)
Stir on ice until sufficiently chilled, strain into a prechilled cocktail glass, garnish with a flamed orange coin zest.
Tastes like it reads obviously, nicely bourbon focused, the nutty-crunchy Knob Creek for example works great here, especially since my Belle Booze coffee liqueur has this slightly smoky note because it uses a little bit of mezcal and thus roasted nuts were present en masse.
A very solid coffee drink that of course allows you to play nicely with the brands. As Mr. Difford writes in the link below, a possible addition of the syrup is of course strongly related to the chosen liqueur, since they are differently sugared and can vary a lot.
