To greet the old year and celebrate the new one, a toast is a must.
For the occasion, we have created two special coffee-based cocktails, a different way to toast 2022 than with the usual bubbles. A pleasant, original and sophisticated alternative idea that will also give a touch of cheerfulness to New Year's Eve.
Always more often, Mixology has increasingly the aroma of coffee, which in recent years has become one of the great protagonists of alcoholic mixing, combined with liqueurs and spirits, creating new interesting cocktails.
The two recipes here proposed were created by Nicola Battista, Morettino Coffee Sommelier and Trainer of Coffee Mixology who, thanks to his mastery of the raw material, was able to wisely use and dose all the ingredients, giving life to two mixes with texture, structure and a balanced taste.
Easy to prepare at home with just a few ingredients, able to perfectly enhance the taste and aroma of coffee, these cocktails will be a great way to end your New Year's dinner and prepare for the celebrations.
