Fall Coffee Cocktails Drink Guide

Fall Coffee Cocktails Drink Guide

Weekend plans this Halloween? We've got you covered whether you're watching football all day, hosting a party, or getting the kids ready for some trick-or-treating. These seasonal drinks are perfect for early mornings, cozy weekends, and cooler weather, a sure start to a brisk Fall day. We spent the day at Clive trying a slew of caffeinated cocktails, and these are our favorites.

Amarula Cream and Coffee

Our version of Irish Coffee with Amarula, this treat will put your morning cup to shame. Great any time of the day, this sweet concoction is made from the delicious Marula fruit of sub-Equatorial Africa, the Marula spirit is distilled and aged in French oak for two years. It is then blended with velvety cream to create the smooth taste of Amarula. We still can’t decide if we love it more hot or iced.

  • 1 cup of hot coffee
  • 1½ - 2 oz Amarula Cream liqueur (or Bailey’s)
  • ¼ cup heavy cream, whipped
  • Ground cinnamon

Pour coffee into a glass, add Amarula Cream and mix well. Top with whipped cream and dust with cinnamon.

To make the whipped cream

Place heavy whipping cream in the bottom of the glass and use blender attachment on a hand mixer and beat cream until soft peaks form about 1-1 ½ minutes. You can also hand mix the whipped cream in a bowl.
