Time 29m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup water
1 1/2 cups sugar
1-inch piece fresh ginger, thinly sliced
2 cinnamon sticks
3 whole cloves
1 cup boiling water
2 tablespoons instant espresso powder
3 to 4 tablespoons hazelnut liqueur (recommended: Frangelico), optional
4 ounces (1/2 cup) Kahlua

Steps:

  • For the syrup: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the water, sugar, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and allow the syrup to cool, about 20 minutes. Remove and discard the ginger, cinnamon, and cloves.
  • For the espresso: In an 8-ounce glass measuring cup, whisk together the boiling water, espresso powder, and liqueur, if using, until the powder is dissolved. Set aside to cool.
  • Combine 1 cup syrup with the espresso/hazelnut liqueur mixture in a large martini shaker. Add the Kaluha and shake to combine. Pour over ice-filled glasses and serve.

This cocktail is a bit too strong for me, but it's still very good.

I made this cocktail with bourbon instead of whiskey and it was still very good.
