This cocktail is meant to bridge the gap between two opposing worlds of coffee cocktails - the dark and rich, and the bright and tropical. This creamy flip has a base of funky Jamaican rum, and is sweetened with a dark and nutty toasted pecan orgeat. Pineapple juice and liqueur lift the drink, which is of course highlighted by a generous portion of Mr Black.
Enjoy.
