TIMMY'S - I can't wait to have a double cream decaf large coffee again!!
As for Xmas drinks, mine will have to be Cola de Mono, which translates to "Monkey's Tale"
??? it's a traditional Chilean Christmastime drink made on a base of milk, flavoured with coffee and spices. It is delicious!! The recipe can be varied to suit your tastes - you can change the proportions of coffee, cinnamon, cloves, and vanilla, as well as your choice of liqueur.
20 whole cloves
5 cinnamon sticks
1 cup water
1 gallon cold milk
1/4 cup instant coffee granules
1 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract (optional)
1 cup pisco, white rum, brandy, or other lightly-flavored liquor (optional)
Gently simmer the cloves and cinnamon sticks in water until reduced by half, about 30 minutes. Add 1 cup of milk, and heat to a simmer, then stir in and dissolve the coffee and sugar.
Strain the coffee mixture into the remaining cold milk, and discard the cloves and cinnamon sticks. Stir in the vanilla extract and pisco. Store in the refrigerator.
YUM
I've already had like a litre of it, this is only this past week...
ps: congrats to parker24 and Nevaeha on their ecas change
