From the Bartender

An American ski-town drink from the 1970s. Add the cola last and pour it slowly: dumped in fast it curdles the cream into unattractive flecks rather than the soft head you want.

Mind Eraser
Coffee Liqueur

Mind Eraser

Soda and almost nothing, then a band of cold vodka, then a rush of sweet roasted coffee at the very end — the flavours land in reverse order, which is the entire joke.

Vietnamese Iced Coffee
Strong Dark-Roast Coffee

Vietnamese Iced Coffee

Caramelised milk sweetness carrying a very dark, almost chocolatey bitterness, thick on the tongue and cut only by the ice as it melts through.

Mudslide
Vodka

Mudslide

Chocolate, cold coffee and whisky-laced cream in roughly equal measure, the vodka doing nothing for flavour and everything for stopping it from being cloying.

Sombrero
Coffee Liqueur

Sombrero

Cold cream first, then bitter-sweet coffee and molasses underneath, the two arriving separately until you stir and it becomes a single soft, roasted thing.
