Afternoon Flip is essentially a decadent coffee flip with added caramel notes from the rum and some bright and fresh herbal notes from the lemongrass infused banana liqueur. Inspiration comes from my mom's lemongrass coffee which she often serves whenever I visit home during Christmas vacations. Unusual combination on paper but it worked so well that I thought of using it in a cocktail someday. This cocktail takes inspiration from these flavours coming together to create a super tasty treat.
