The Black Magic Cocktail is August 21st Drink of the Day!!
Here’s one for you that you can put together in less than a minute. This is all liquor, so be careful. Nothing beats the flavor of coffee in a cocktail, especially when complimented with vodka and a touch of lemon. Let’s just get down to it, shall we?
1 1/2 oz. Vodka
3/4 oz. Kahlua
Juice of half a Lemon
Method: In an old fashioned glass filled with ice, pour in the measured amounts of vodka and Kahlua. Squeeze in the juice from half a lemon, then discard the lemon. Stir, then garnish with a lemon half wheel.
