Bonfire Night Cocktail: Grand Spiced Coffee


I know today is Halloween, and so you're probably spending the afternoon thinking about whether you can pull off that fancy dress costume you've got planned and deciding which of our Top 10 Halloween Cocktails to make, but We Need To Talk About Bonfire Night.

Because you might also be planning a Bonfire Night party this weekend, and because you also might want to stock up on some tasty drinks treats for the big night itself, we've decided to make our latest cocktail all about Remember, Remembering the 5th of November.

Whether you're planning on being out at a fireworks display, playing with sparklers in the garden, having a big bonfire with your neighbours or even just curling up indoors and listening to the whizzes and bangs outside your window, this cocktail is the perfect treat.

There's something about the blend of orange and cinnamon that makes this one heck of a coffee: not just for Bonfire Night, but for the whole of autumn.

This classic combination of strong coffee with Grand Marnier’s notes of orange is heightened by the sweet taste of cinnamon – the ideal cocktail to keep you warm by the Bonfire.

  • Cinnamon powder
  • Whipped cream
  • Ginger powder
Method:
