Cachaça & Coffee
Espresso Martinis are popular. We're not mad about it.
- 1.5 oz Novo Fogo Barrel-Aged Cachaça
- 1 oz espresso or strong coffee
- 0.75 oz banana syrup (simmer a sliced banana in simple syrup of 1 part sugar dissolved in 1 part hot water for 30 minutes and strain)
- 2 dashes aromatic bitters
Shake all ingredients and strain into a cocktail glass.
Barrel-Aged Cachaça
This aged spirit bakes the banana notes from the un-aged cachaça in 53-gallon American oak barrels that have been taken apart, sanded, and re-toasted. The heat and humidity of the rainforest changes the spirit to the flavors of banana bread, with notes of chocolate, cinnamon bark, coffee, and black pepper.
