BlackTide
Black Tide is a cocktail designed for the hours when things slow down but the night isn’t over yet. Inspired by the structure of an Espresso Martini, this version swaps vodka for dark rum, instantly adding weight, warmth, and molasses-rich depth. Mr. Black Coffee Liqueur takes center stage, delivering intense roasted coffee flavor without excessive sweetness, while a touch of simple syrup smooths the edges just enough to keep the drink balanced.
TheButteryBrew
The Buttery Brew is pure comfort in cocktail form. Designed for coffee lovers with a sweet tooth, this drink leans into richness, warmth, and slow-sipping satisfaction. Mr. Black Coffee Liqueur provides a deep, roasted backbone, while butterscotch schnapps brings a salty-sweet, buttery softness that instantly shifts the drink into dessert territory. A small pour of dark rum adds gentle spice and depth, grounding the sweetness and keeping the drink from feeling heavy.
Dark&Minty
Dark & Minty flips the usual coffee-cocktail script. Instead of leaning into richness or dessert-like depth, this drink goes light, cooling, and surprisingly refreshing. Mr. Black Coffee Liqueur brings roasted coffee flavor without heaviness, while peppermint schnapps cuts through with a clean, cooling lift that instantly brightens the drink. A small amount of dark rum adds warmth and structure, keeping the cocktail grounded without weighing it down.
RoastedJaffa
Roasted Jaffa is where dark coffee meets citrus - not in a bright, breakfasty way, but in something deeper and more atmospheric. Inspired by the classic chocolate-orange pairing, this cocktail builds its character around contrast. Mr. Black Coffee Liqueur brings roasted intensity and bitterness, while dark rum adds warmth and a faint molasses richness that anchors the drink. Orange juice cuts through with sweetness and acidity, but instead of feeling fresh and juicy, it tastes richer, darker, and more complex against the roasted base.
RumToffee
Rum Toffee is unapologetically indulgent. This isn’t a “one more round” cocktail - it’s a sit-back, slow-sip, dessert-in-a-glass kind of drink. Built on Mr. Black Coffee Liqueur and dark rum, it leans into roasted bitterness and warm molasses depth, then softens everything with buttery butterscotch schnapps and a touch of simple syrup.
