By KRUPS Barista Sam Lewontin

Ingredients

- 6oz. hot filter coffee*

- 1 1/2oz. Irish whiskey

- 1/2oz. Demerara syrup**

- 3 dashes Dale DeGroff Pimento bitters

- 2oz half and half

 Directions:

1. Combine coffee, whiskey, Demerara syrup, and bitters in your favorite coffee mug. 
2. Stir to combine. 
3. Steam half and half, pour over the top of the coffee-whiskey mixture, and garnish with freshly-grated nutmeg. 
4. If you prefer, add whipped cream.

**If you can't locate bottled Demerara syrup in a store near you, you can make your own by dissolving two parts Demerara sugar in one part boiling water, and stirring until fully integrated.

ENJOY!
