Caffè Corretto

Caffè Corretto

Caffè Corretto is an Italian cocktail made with espresso and a small amount of either spirits or liqueur.  In this variation, coffee liqueur adds body and a little sweetness, while the bitterness of the fernet and the espresso bring welcome lightness to the close of a meal. 
 

Ingredients:

  • 1½ oz espresso (chilled)
  • ¾ oz coffee liqueur
  • ½ oz Fernet-Branca
  • ¼ oz simple syrup

      Preparation

      1. Combine chilled espresso, coffee liqueur, Fernet-Branca, and simple syrup in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake and strain into a chilled rocks glass or into small sherry glasses.
