Coffee Base

Creamy Topping

Method

Preparing the Coffee

  1. 1

    Brew the Coffee

    Brew 1 cup of your favorite coffee using your preferred brewing method (drip, French press, etc.). Ensure the coffee is strong and hot.

  2. 2

    Add Hazelnut and Chocolate Syrup

    Once brewed, pour the coffee into a large mug or glass. Add 2 tablespoons of hazelnut syrup and 1 tablespoon of chocolate syrup to the coffee. Stir well until the syrups are fully incorporated.

Adding Cream and Toppings

  1. 3

    Add Half & Half

    Pour 3 tablespoons of half & half into the coffee mixture. Stir gently to combine and create a creamier texture.

  2. 4

    Top with Whipped Cream

    Generously top the coffee with 1 cup of whipped cream. You can use a can of whipped cream or make your own by whipping heavy cream until soft peaks form.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve Hot or Iced

    Enjoy the Royal Nut hot or let it cool down for a few minutes, then pour over ice for an iced version. Optionally, drizzle extra chocolate and hazelnut syrup on top of the whipped cream for garnish.
