Amaretto Indulgence

By the Lavazza Team 2–3 minutes

THE INGREDIENTS:

  • 30 ml Lavazza Espresso Italiano Classico
  • 30ml Amaretto liqueur
  • 20ml Double cream (previously shaken)
  • Light dusting of bitter cocoa

THE PREPARATION:

  1. Place 6-8 ice cubes in the shaker.
  2. Chill thoroughly, then discard any water that has accumulated.
  3. Using a jigger, measure the amaretto liqueur and pour it into the shaker.
  4. Add the hot coffee.
  5. Close the shaker and shake vigorously for approximately 10 seconds.
  6. Remove the shaker's cap and strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass.
  7. Finish the preparation by pouring the double cream gently over the back of a spoon held just above the coffee's surface to float the cream on top of the drink perfectly, then add a light dusting of bitter cocoa.

Top Tip: Enjoy Amaretto Indulgence after dinner.

Preparing the perfect coffee for your cocktail:

As coffee is a key ingredient in this cocktail, getting the proportions of coffee and water right will help to achieve the perfect drink! We recommend using 15g ground coffee to 150ml to brew the coffee in the Moka Carmencita or if you’re using a Cafetière brew a coffee concentrate with 40g ground coffee to 100ml. If you’re using an Espresso machine use the double pressurised filter basket and 15g coffee - this should give you 40-45ml of coffee.
