    In a small bowl, combine 1 cup of brewed coffee with 1/2 cup of sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to infuse, then strain into a clean container.

    In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz of Lyre’s Coffee Originale, 1 oz of espresso, and 1 tbsp of the prepared house coffee saccharum. Fill the shaker with ice.

  3. 3

    Shake and Serve

    Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds. Strain the mixture into a chilled glass. Optionally, garnish with a coffee bean or a sprinkle of cocoa powder.
