Cocktail and dessert, two words that go so well together, put coffee in there and you’ve got a recipe that’s bound to be a winner!

Here’s a new recipe from our friend Étienne at Distillerie de Montréal: Vietnamese coffee with spiced rum. Any espresso blend will do, but with its notes of dark chocolate, Cremone is most definitely our first choice for this recipe.

If you’re in the mood for a dessert cocktail, you’re in for a treat; happy mixing!
