Espresso Veloce

A recipe like a supercar: Espresso Veloce combines the punch of a double ristretto with fine rum and a subtle citrus note. The ultimate kick for connoisseurs with a taste for speed.

Ingredients (for 1 drink):
  • 1 double ristretto or very strong espresso (e.g., Lamborghini Platinum)

  • 2 cl dark rum (such as Zacapa or Don Papa)

  • 1 cl coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlúa or homemade)

  • Freshly grated lemon zest / lemon peel

  • Ice cubes

  • Optional: a spoonful of cold milk foam or lightly whipped cream

Preparation
  1. Brew a fresh cup of espresso and let it cool slightly.

  2. Shake the rum, coffee liqueur, and ice vigorously in a shaker.

  3. Strain into a tumbler or cocktail glass.

  4. Slowly pour in the espresso so that it floats to the top.

  5. Garnish with citrus zest and, if desired, a small dollop of foamed milk.

Enjoy—but keep a safe distance. 😎
