The Cowboy Coffee Cocktail
About the Cowboy Coffee Cocktail
Crushed beans and Colorado whiskey make this tasty concoction fit for even the most grizzled cattle-driver.
Ingredients in the Cowboy Coffee Cocktail
- 2 Dark roast coffee beans
- 2.5 oz Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey
- .5 oz Demerara syrup (one part raw sugar, one part water)
- 2 dashes Angostura Bitters
Garnish: Lemon peel and coffee bean
Glass: Champagne flute
How to make the Cowboy Coffee Cocktail
In a shaker, crush the coffee beans. Add the remaining ingredients and fill with ice. Shake, and fine strain into a chilled Champagne flute. Squeeze a lemon peel over the drink and garnish with the peel and an additional coffee bean.
only two coffee beans? I would do this cocktail somewhat differently. Prepare some Turkish coffee. Set aside to cool. Add 1 Tsp. of the Turkish coffee the cocktail shaker then add the other ingredients. By using a strong coffee, the cocktail will taste like coffee, instead of really weak coffee.
What is “cowboy” about a champagne flute?

Even cowboys have to celebrate the morning sometimes.
