When imagining a dessert cocktail that would mimic the flavors of one of his favorite sweet treats, jaffa cake, bartender Taylor Hall combined spice-forward aquavit with chocolate and orange bitters, Aperol and coffee.

Ingredients

1 oz. aquavit
1 oz. French press coffee (chilled)
1 oz. Aperol
½ oz. simple syrup (1:1)
2 dashes chocolate bitters
6 dashes orange bitters

Tools:shaker, strainer, fine strainer
Glass:rocks
Garnish:flamed orange peel

Preparation

Shake all of the ingredients together with ice, then fine strain into a rocks glass over a single large ice cube. Carefully flame the orange peel over the top of the drink and garnish.
