Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spanish Coffee Delight.
Step 1
Start by pouring some superfine sugar into a shallow dish, creating a sweet base for your drink.
Step 2
Next, take a wine glass or an Irish coffee mug and moisten the rim with a little water.
Step 3
Now, dip the wet rim into the sugar, ensuring it gets a lovely, even coating that will add a delightful crunch to each sip.
Step 4
Pour in the rum and triple sec, letting their rich flavors mingle in the glass.
Step 5
With a long match or lighter, carefully ignite the mixture, watching as the flames dance above the glass.
Step 6
Gently rotate the glass to help the sugar caramelize, transforming it into a beautiful golden crust that adds both flavor and flair.
Step 7
Once the sugar has reached that perfect caramelized state, pour in the coffee liqueur to safely extinguish the flame, revealing the delicious concoction beneath.
Step 8
Finally, top off your drink with hot coffee, stirring gently to blend all those wonderful flavors together.
Step 9
Enjoy this warm, inviting beverage that’s perfect for cozy evenings or special gatherings!.
