Caffe
Corretto Cocktails to Keep You Warm
By FBWorld Team
Tis
the season for keeping warm - and what better than a hot
coffee cocktail to warm the spirit and keep one going
through the cold winter days. Mr. Espresso, a Bay Area
roasting institution since the 1970s, has two Caffe Corretto
recipes that are sure to be a hit for this and any occasion
during the winter months. Caffe Corretto is an Italian
beverage consisting of espresso to which a small amount
of liquor is added. Literally translated, corretto means
"correct", as in espresso corrected by the liquor.
