    A savory Mexican coffee—just perfect for topping off an intimate outdoor dinner.

    Yield: 4 mugs

    INGREDIENTS
    • 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
    • ½ cup heavy cream
    • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • 2 tablespoons sugar
    • Pinch of grated nutmeg
    • 2 cups strong hot coffee
    • Whipped cream and ground cinnamon, for garnish

    Directions

    1. Place the chocolate syrup, cream, cinnamon, sugar, and nutmeg in a blender. Pulse twice, then blend to thicken, about 1 minute.

    2. Pour the hot coffee into 4 mugs and add the syrup mixture to each, stirring gently. Top with whipped cream, and sprinkle with extra cinnamon.
