This was amazing! I brought this over to my friends house, and the Vodka was awesome! I made sure to get a good fizzy drink! Thanks a lot, Bobby!
Good, but it’s really just an extra sweet black Russian. Not sure the simple syrup was necessary.
Thanks for the recipe, it was a great drink for Friday night)) I made with soda maker, that was much convenient and faster. I use KitchenAid KSS3121CU, which I got from my friends as B-day gift. It is nice to know that Bestadvisor.com/soda-makers considers this model as the best one. Though there are also some good and cheaper soda makers) Anyway, the drink was really good))
these are amazing. the perfect after dinner drink.
I’m ADDICTED! When I watched Bobby Flay making this, my mouth was watering at the
idea of the coffee bean simple syrup. I ended up making 3 of these the first time and of course now I’m hooked! Delicious! Great afternoon pick-me-up – and looks absolutely beautiful in a tall slender glass! Add a straw and you are GOOD TO GO! Thank you Bobby!! Another homerun!
