Drink of the Day: Aggravation
I don’t know why the cocktail is named what it is. Probably because it does a good job settling you down after a long day at the office. What better cocktail to introduce you to as we get into the weekend?
Honestly, when I first found this cocktail, I wasn’t sure I was going to like this drink. I am not really a fan of the Godchild, which is a scotch and amaretto combination with cream, so I didn’t see too much changing when I subbed the Kahlua in place of the Amaretto. I was pleasantly surprised on the difference and it is close to being my favorite creamy after-dinner treat. I suggest you give this one a try.
Don’t forget about Valentine’s Day tomorrow. Tomorrow I have a nice and fresh cocktail for you that I think you will enjoy. It may take some time to make, but it will be well worth the wait. In the meantime, enjoy this easy to make and full of flavor beverage. A perfect prelude to that special day with your other half.
