Tips & Variations

• Use cooled espresso if you prefer a less diluted drink and a smoother texture.
• Adjust the simple syrup quantity to balance sweetness according to your taste.
• For a vegan version, choose a plant-based Biscoff cookie butter and confirm the coffee liqueur is vegan-friendly.
• Try adding a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg on top for a warm spice note.

Storage

This cocktail is best enjoyed fresh. If you need to prepare in advance, mix the liquids without ice or coffee butter, refrigerate briefly, then shake with ice just before serving to maintain the creamy texture and froth. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours but may lose some froth and smoothness.

Notes

• Ensure the espresso is fresh for the best flavor; cooled espresso works well if you prefer your cocktail less warm.
• The simple syrup sweetness can be adjusted to taste or omitted for a less sweet version.
• When whisking the cookie butter in the shaker, you can warm it slightly beforehand to help it dissolve faster if desired.
• Use a fine mesh strainer to prevent any larger cookie butter bits from entering the glass, maintaining a smooth texture.
• For a non-alcoholic version, substitute the vodka and coffee liqueur with chilled coffee or a coffee-flavored syrup and adjust sweetness accordingly.
