Black and Tan Coffee is an indulgent, layered beverage that perfectly marries the robust intensity of black coffee with the smooth, creamy sweetness of vanilla-infused milk. Topped with a dollop of whipped cream and a dusting of cocoa powder, this coffee offers a comforting, decadent morning treat or a sophisticated after-dinner delight. As a nod to the traditional beer-based 'Black and Tan,' this recipe is a playful twist on morning routines, bringing a bit of the pub into your coffee cup!

Servings: 1

Ingredients

Cocoa powder
1 teaspoon, for garnish
Whipped cream
1 dollop, for garnish
Vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon
Sugar
1 tablespoon
Milk
1 cup
Strong black coffee
1 cup, freshly brewed

Instructions

  1. Brew a strong cup of black coffee using your preferred brewing method.
  2. In a separate saucepan, combine the milk, sugar, and vanilla extract. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until hot but not boiling. This is your 'tan' component.
  3. Pour the freshly brewed black coffee into a large mug, filling it about halfway. This forms your 'black' layer.
  4. Slowly pour the hot milk mixture over the back of a spoon into the mug, allowing it to float on the top of the black coffee, creating the 'tan' layer.
  5. Top your layered Black and Tan Coffee with a dollop of whipped cream for added richness.
  6. Sprinkle with cocoa powder for a beautiful finish and an extra hint of chocolatey indulgence.
  7. Serve hot and enjoy the perfect blend of flavors in your homemade Black and Tan Coffee.
