Garnish Your Spanish Coffee Cocktail

The Flaming Spanish Coffee Cocktail is a joy to make and to see. It's a dramatic showcase of basic bar skills and a wonderfully warming, bold drink for chilly evenings.

After the fire is out, your Flaming Spanish Coffee Cocktail is nearly complete. However, you still have the chance to get creative. You can mix and match the toppings of your choice. Select from the following garnishes:
  • Whipped cream or heavy cream
  • Ground cinnamon and/or nutmeg
  • Grated citrus zest
  • Chocolate shavings or a drizzle of chocolate syrup
  • A brandied cherry (or a maraschino cherry)
Once you've topped your drink, it's ready to enjoy. Just be careful -- it's probably still very hot!
