Can you name every type of plant or flower? What about every type of tree? Of course not ??" there is a ridiculous number of species and within those species hundreds of different types, each having their own name. It is impossible to remember the names of them all.
This has almost become the case with types of coffee. There are so many wonderful varieties out there to try. But who can remember them all? We may not remember the names but we will not quickly forget the taste. Let's consider some uniquely names creations.
There's the elegant and simple Frappe, but with a silent 'e'. Widely consumed in Europe and Latin America, it's a cold espresso made with two teaspoons of sugar and milk with crushed ice cubes. For a nice variation, add a quarter cup each of brandy and crme de cacao. Since it's served with a straw, I just wish those drinking it were silent, too.
Another that gets it name from a its killer taste ??" the Cappuccino Borgia. Not just an ordinary espresso, this drink includes the sweetness of 1 cup of chocolate ice cream, the tang of 6 tbsp of orange juice cup of milk and cup of orange (peeled). It has a taste to die for.
Re-enter the 21st century and jet to the Caribbean for a Calypso Cooler. A cup of chilled, extra strength coffee gets subjected to a couple of ripe bananas and two cups of coffee ice cream. Add four tablespoons of rum and lose your luggage.
Lets go Latin with the Caffee Zabaglone. This starts with an Italian coffee blend, dark roast. Take cup of Marsala; add 1 cup of sugar 4 eggs and a sprinkle of salt. Blend these together and heat until it is think. Then pour it over your Italian blend cooled to room temperature. This is one cup of coffee sure to wake you up.
But the ancestors of Rome have nothing on those of France in modern New Orleans. Add double strength American roast to a half-cup each of heavy cream, eggnog and bourbon and you have a Mardi Gras, with a silent 's'. Too bad the crowd isn't silent - it's 4 a.m. and I'm trying to sleep.
Cardamom Kaffee is a Scandinavian drink. It is a dark strong drink with a flavor borrowed from Turkey but perfected in this excellent blend. This Scandinavian recipe is a must try.
In your microwave heat the mixture of 1/8 cup of cognac 2 tsp of curacao and 2 tsp of sugar along with a cardamon pod which you have opened to remove the seeds. Heat for only 10 seconds and the put a match to it. Add your coffee and prepare yourself for something different!
Despite all the names, I have to give credit to the many creative inventors of all those different mixtures. They may not have invented huge bombs, but their products sure do give you a jolt! - 14915
