Coffee Liqueur Recipe

Yes, that is coffee ice cream that has been doused in coffee liqueur and dusted with coffee-chocolate powder. It’s one of my favorite summer snacks when I’m feeling a little more adult-y than usual. It came about because I was experimenting with homemade coffee liqueur (recipe down below) and didn’t know what to do with the results. Plus, I had some delicious Sailor Jerry spiced rum left.

Vietnamese Iced Coffee Recipe

I love coffee; we all know this. Sometimes it’s way too hot and humid for a long black though. That’s when I go back to my roots and make a cà phê đá, also known as a Vietnamese iced coffee. The coffee is traditionally made using a phin: a small metal filter pot that sits on top of your glass. It’s slow. I’m usually already grumpy when it’s too hot and watching it brew drip by drip drives me nuts.
