Check out the recipe and instructions on how to put this together below!

Ingredients

½ oz. 151 Cruzan Rum
½ oz. Orange Liquor
1 ½ oz. Coffee Liquor
Whipped Cream
Organic Sugar, to rim glass
Ground Cinnamon
Ground Nutmeg
Lemon Wedge
60g coffee, coarsely ground
33 oz of water heated to 205 degrees F

Directions

Brew coffee in the ESPRO Coffee Press P7. Use a lemon wedge to wet the rim of the wine glass and press it into the plate of sugar to rim the glass. While holding at a 45-degree angle add Rum and Orange Liquor and ignite with a lighter or match. Slowly rotate the glass to caramelize the sugar. While burning, add a dash of cinnamon, nutmeg and Coffee Liquor. To extinguish the flame, add coffee and top with whipped cream. Garnish with cinnamon and nutmeg.
