3 dashes chicory coffee tincture
Tools: mixing glass, barspoon
Glass: cordial or coupe
Garnish: orange twist

Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass and stir with ice. Strain into a chilled glass and garnish.

Chicory Coffee Tincture: In a 1-liter jar combine 1 cup of coarsely ground coffee beans, 1 cup of dry roasted chicory and 2 cups of high-proof bourbon or rye whiskey.
