This was a wonderful treat Dannygirl. I really enjoyed this tasty drink. I choose Kalhua as my liquer of choice today. Made exactly as written, but substituted the cool whip for whipping cream (personal preference only) I garnished the tasty drink with candied ginger and cinnamon...Thanks for sharing. Made for Comfort Cafe Chalet 2010

I skipped the ginger and made it with the cinnamon and orange. For the liqueur I added Mozart Black (Dark chocolate) and enjoyed a marvelous coffee treat. Yummm! Made for Comfort Cafe, Jan 09.

This was different but good. I'm not sure I like ginger with my coffee. Might leave that out next time and just have an orange/cinnamon flavor.

An excellent after-dinner drink! I made half a pot, used ground cinnamon & Grand Marnier.I'm not fussy on frozen whipped topping so I used the real thing. Thanx Familian!

Easy and pretty good. Friends liked it a lot. I'll definitely try it with the recommemnded cheesecake although I think it will be good with any cheesecake.
