Method
Cocktail
Sweeten coffee
Place 1 teaspoon brown sugar into the warmed glass. Pour about 2 tablespoons of the hot coffee over the sugar and stir until fully dissolved.
Prepare cream float
In a small bowl or jar, lightly whisk 2 tablespoons heavy cream with a pinch of ground cinnamon until just slightly thickened but still pourable (do not whip to peaks).
Finish and garnish
Carefully pour the lightly whipped cream over the back of a spoon so it floats on top of the coffee. Garnish with a light dusting of cinnamon and an optional orange twist expressed over the drink and set on the rim.
Serve immediately while hot. Stir the cream into the coffee as you drink for a rich, layered Mexican Coffee.
