Ingredients

  • 1.25 cups fresh brewed espresso (I used Nespresso Robusta Uganda pods)

  • .5 cups lightly packed brown sugar (or demerara if you have it)
  • lightly whipped cream to top

Instructions

  • Brew the espresso, add sugar, and stir until dissolved. Stir in whiskey and pour into a freezer safe baking dish.
  • Let freeze uncovered for two hours, then scrape/break up the ice crystals with a fork. Cover and let freeze completely, another two hours or overnight.
  • Fluff the ice crystals with a fork again before serving. Spoon into bowls and top with lightly whipped cream.
