Peppermint Dandy
“Minty hot chocolate” was the theme for Fabien Piccoli at Brooklyn’s Antica Pesa, and we’d say he hit it out of the park with the Peppermint Dandy. It’s our new favorite holiday cocktail, a perfect chocolate dinner mint with depth and complexity from coffee liqueur and Branca Menta, a mint-forward fernet.
Piccoli’s recipe as printed in Imbibe didn’t specify the cream liqueur; we’re partial to RumChata, a rice-based liqueur based on Mexican horchata.
Ingredients
- 1 part Coffee liqueur
- ¾ part Horchata liqueur or Irish cream
- ¼ part Crème de cacao
- 1 tsp Mint fernet
