o ½ ounce agave nectar

o 2 ounces cold strong coffee

or espresso

o lightly whipped vanilla

flavored cream*

o 3 coffee beans

Method:

of a spoon to float it on the top

of the drink.

Comments:

It pays to plan ahead for this

one. Make and chill your

coffee in advance. Stirring with

warm coffee will melt too

much ice and dilution is not

your friend here.

*Lightly whip cream with a

dash of vanilla extract until

slightly thickened but still

pourable.
