Winter Warmers
Anybody who has stayed at Homeleigh Halt a couple of times gets to know that I love my coffee. In fact you could probably say I am addicted to really good coffee…..
On occasion when I have a function here the ladies will ask me to make them something special.
Now that is when South African Amarula Cream comes to the rescue, and they provide you with the most divine recipes.
Listed hereunder are two absolute “must have” favourites:
Winter warmers from Amarula
This winter, treat your senses to a cultural exchange of untamed African earthiness and classic style, flavoured with modern undertones to awaken your spirit from within – introducing Amarula Coffee Surprise:
Amarula Coffee Surprise
Ingredients:
4 cups strong filter coffee
50 ml whipped cream
60 ml Amarula Cream
8 marshmallows
20 ml brown sugar
20 ml hot chocolate powder
Method:
Pour the coffee in large coffee mugs. Pour the Amarula Cream in each coffee, followed by the whipped cream, brown sugar and marshmallows. Sprinkle with hot chocolate powder and extra Amarula Cream.
For a shorter, more energetic winter boost, try a Vodka Espresso which is an energetic shot of espresso sipped through a luxurious collar of Amarula to inspire, uplift and enliven the palate:
Vodka Espresso – for the very brave!
Ingredients:
1 tot Vodka
1 tot Amarula Cream
2 tot Espresso coffee
2 teaspoons Caster sugar (or to taste)
Method:
Shake coffee, vodka and sugar together with cubed ice, strain into a glass tumbler, and layer Amarula Cream on top. Garnish with 3 coffee beans. There’s no need to let the winter chill get to you this season, with Amarula perfectly complementing Caturra coffee, we’ll keep you warm.
All that is left for me to say is enjoy ladies and gents…now you can make your own at home. (This is an alcoholic beverage and as such is for those persons of legal drinking age.)
