Spiked Iced Coffee

Jet-lagged or utterly zonked but need to carry on and get stuff done?
I have always found that a sweetened spiked coffee offers everything I need to put a little pep back in my step. The jolt of caffeine, the buzz of sugar, and of course the fire of a little rum call for the perfect energizing drink to revitalize and awaken.

I know that when people think of coffee drinks, they tend to conjure images of Kahlua, but this drink has no kahlua whatsoever. I used a coconut rum, because that’s what we had on hand, but I do believe any rum would work. This one I served on ice, as per my husband’s preference, but it is just as great when hot.

Ingredients:

  • 6 ounces coffee (if serving iced, coffee should be room temperature)
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1.5 ounces coconut rum
  • ½ cup ice (optional)
  1. Place all the ingredients in a glass, with the exception of ice, and stir until fully combined.
  2. Add ice and enjoy.
