Cuisine: Spanish
Ingredients: 2 cups Strong brewed coffee; 2 tbs Sugar; 1 cup Brandy; 1 tbs Coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlúa); 1 cup Whipped cream; 1 tsp Cinnamon powder; 1 tsp Nutmeg (optional)

Brew 2 cups of strong coffee using your preferred method (drip, French press, etc.). Ensure that the coffee is hot.

Brew Coffee

Add 2 tablespoons of sugar to the brewed coffee and stir until fully dissolved.

Sweeten Coffee

In a separate heat-resistant glass or mug, mix together 1 cup of brandy and 1 tablespoon of coffee liqueur.

Combine Liqueurs

Gently warm the liqueur mixture over low heat until it is hot but not boiling. You can do this on the stovetop or in the microwave.

Heat Liqueurs

Pour the sweetened coffee into a heat-resistant glass, filling it halfway. Carefully pour the heated liqueur mixture over the back of a spoon to create a layered effect.

Layer Coffee and Liqueurs

Using a long lighter or match, ignite the surface of the liqueur layer. Allow it to flame for a few seconds to create the flaming effect.

Flame the Coffee

Top the flaming coffee with 1 cup of whipped cream. Sprinkle with cinnamon powder and nutmeg if desired.

Garnish

Serve immediately while still flaming, and instruct guests to blow out the flame before drinking.
