1 oz vodka
1 oz cherry liqueur

- Add to coffee equal parts of sugar syrup, vodka and cherry liqueur to add fruity notes.
- Fill the shaker with ice cubes and coffe mixture and shake well.
- Strain the cocktail into a chilled martini glass using a fine mesh strainer to ensure no ice falls into the glass.

Tips:
- Use plenty of ice to ensure the drink is served chilled, but be careful not to excessively dilute the beverage with the ice.
- Shake really well to give a nice texture to the drink.
- If you are using a Mazzer Philos go to grind setting 20/50 range, if you are using a Omega X hand grinder go to 8 - 10+4 range
