How To Make Christmas Morning Coffee

This cocktail is so easy to make.

All you need is a cocktail jigger or measuring jug, some freshly brewed coffee and a holiday glass or mug. 

Step 1

Start by adding in your Baileys followed by your other liquors. 

Step 2

Now fill the glass with freshly brewed black coffee

Step 3

Top with whipped cream and some crushed candy canes

 

I used ready-made crushed candy canes but you can easily make your own by putting some candy canes in a zippered bag. Go over them with a rolling pin until they are crushed.
