Thursday Night Cocktail: Latte with Baileys & Orange

Despite it being March, the weather today here in Boston feels like January. Looks like I have one last opportunity to feature a warm drink for Thursday Night Cocktail. 

Chanel Dror, the managing editor of Camille Styles, did a post last month on espresso with Baileys and a hint of orange. I'm not even a latte drinker and it looked amazing to me.

Ingredients

1 shot espresso
cold skim milk
Bailey’s Irish Cream
orange extract
ground coffee and orange zest for garnish

Directions

In a milk frother or steamer, combine 1 part milk with 1 part Bailey’s Irish Cream. Froth until combination reaches a foamy consistency.

While milk combination is frothing, add 1/2 teaspoon of orange extract to espresso shot.

In a large mug, pour froth over orange-infused espresso shot.

Garnish with freshly ground coffee beans and twist of orange zest.


Cheers! Here's hoping spring comes soon!
