Greenlandic Coffee

Submitted by Northwestgal

"I got this recipe from the Official Greenland Travel Guide website. It was described as Greenland's version of an Irish Coffee. It is stronger than the well-known Irish dessert coffee and it is finished off with a liquid flame of Grand Marnier that has been set alight – the coffee’s final ingredient."

 

• Ready In: 5mins
• Ingredients: 5
• Serves: 1

ingredients

• 1⁄3 ounce whiskey
• 1⁄3 ounce Kahlua
• 1⁄3 ounce Grand Marnier
• 3 1⁄3 ounces hot coffee, freshly brewed
• whipped cream

directions

1. Pour a measure of whisky into a large glass with a stem (Bordeaux). Warm the whisky carefully over a candle or a spirit burner and set it alight.
2. Let it burn for a moment, after which Kahlúa and hot coffee without sugar should be added.
3. Then carefully pour in a thick layer of gently whipped cream.
4. Finally, add burning Grand Marnier from a large sauce spoon lifted high above the glass – preferably in a dark room so that the blue Grand Marnier flame is clearly visible.

I cheated just a little bit. I used all the ingredients but I didn't ignite the alcool. I'm too afraid of that lolll And on my photo, I had to double the ingredients since the mug was too big loll Thanks NorthwestGal :) It was so yummy. Made for PAC Spring 2013

This was very tasty. I just made this for myself, but with the dramatic finish, this would be a great drink to make when entertaining. Made for ZWT6.
