Introduction
As the icy temperatures of the new year take hold, our friends at Portrait Coffee have created a unique winter cocktail for us to share with you. This drink may be enjoyed best with a frosty chill in the air or a roaring fireplace in the background - but we think it will warm your spirits anytime throughout the year. The Portrait Coffee team explored what attributes in liquor would pair best with the smooth, well-rounded cup of coffee that a Moccamaster is famous for. The hazelnut & caramel attributes from Toni coffee blended well with the sweet citrus & florality found in the vermouth & amaretto. Serve & enjoy this drink as the perfect treat for your next winter gathering.
