Mint Mocha Café
An amazing original cocktail that we created over the holiday season. A coffee cocktail that has a wonderful balance of flavors,from earthy nutty notes to sweet mint. It’s a fantastic breakfast cocktail on the weekend and/or something that will pair nicely with an elegant dessert at night. It’s bound to become a winter mainstay for all that try it.
