Old Irish Blackballer Cocktail Recipe–a drink for coffee lovers

We recently featured a crazy gadget for coffee and cocktail lovers called NitroBrew. (Click here to read our review.) This cutting edge toy for home cooks and mixologists adds texture to drinks with nitrogen. Now, NitroBrew was actually created for beer and coffee. But it really works best with cocktails, in my humble opinion. I guess the creators of NitroBrew agree, because they sent me this recipe for an Old Irish Blackballer cocktail to try!

Created by Jacob Tschetter, aka The Bearded Alchemist, this Old Irish Blackballer cocktail layers the bitter refreshment of cold brew with a shot of Whiskey, a touch of chicory liqueur and the sweetness of (aphrodisiac) maple syrup.

Now, of course, it requires that you invest in a NitroBrew of your own but maybe once you read the details, you will understand that your bar is naked without one.
