Get grounded this Halloween with a dessert cocktail that’s as disturbing as it is delicious. The Grave Digger is a simple twist on a Spanish Coffee with one spooky exception: It’s topped with crushed Oreo cookies and a tiny shovel to resemble a freshly dug grave—a nifty little trick we picked up from cocktail influencer Katie Stryjewski, aka @garnish_girl.
Grave Digger
- 1 1/2 ounces vanilla-infused brandy*
- 3/4 ounce coffee liqueur
- 1/2 ounce Grand Marnier
- 1 ounce espresso, freshly brewed
- Garnish: whipped cream
- Garnish: Oreo cookies, crushed
- Add all ingredients into a shaker with ice and shake until well-chilled.
- Strain into a coupe.
- Top with whipped cream and crushed Oreo cookies (discarding cream in centre).
*Vanilla-infused brandy: Cut 2 fresh vanilla pods lengthwise and place into a 750 mL bottle of brandy. Let sit for 3 to 5 days, shaking occasionally. Strain out pods and store.
