A lovely minty treat for those hot summer days!
What you will need
Chilled coffee
Fresh mint
2 tsp. Sugar
3 oz. Baileys (or cream)
Coffee ice cube(s)
Chocolate sauce
• Place some fresh mint leaves and your sugar on the bottom of a sturdy glass.
• Muddle the sugar and mint: Press down lightly, and twist gently* — until you start to smell the mint in the air.
• Add the coffee ice cubes to the glass and pour on the coffee. Coffee ice cubes are a great way to keep your iced coffee from getting diluted. For tips on making great iced coffee check out these posts .
• Add Baileys, (or cream if you don’t want the alcohol), and add chocolate sauce to your drink.
• Stir and garnish with a fresh sprig of mint.

*When muddling it is important to use a muddler made from natural materials, mine is made of wood. Avoid anything lacquered or varnished to minimize any transference into your drink.
