Raven Coffee Cocktail

This Raven-inspired coffee cocktail is a fall update on a classic Black Russian cocktail, with vanilla and cinnamon notes. If you’re a fan of pumpkin spice and have Pumpkin Spice Vodka available near you, you can switch that out for the Cinnamon Whiskey.

We went with a Raven theme due to the beautiful coloring of this drink, and that coffee liqueur which is essential when reading or watching a bit of horror. I can definitely see Mr. Poe sipping on one of these, in a dark lounge as the Raven perches and looks on.

Raven: Coffee Cocktail Ingredients

• 2 oz Kahlua or other coffee liqueur
• 1 oz Cinnamon Whiskey or Pumpkin Spice Vodka
• 1 oz Vanilla Vodka

Simply fill a cocktail shaker with ice and pour the liqueurs overtop, one at a time. Cover and shake well.

Strain the cocktail into a martini glass. Serve with a clean feather for garnish, if desired.
