We all have to work. At least, most of us do. Working sucks at the best of times – unless you are lucky enough to have your dream job – but commuting to the office sucks a whole lot more. Dealing with heavy traffic, road rage and unreliable cars is enough to drive even the calmest of individuals to distraction.

Long before my serious cocktailing days, boozy drinks that featured coffee were a go-to for this caffeine addict. Then and now, I’ve found the effect both invigorating and relaxing and, let me tell you, drinks that are insults to the good name of Irish Coffee have gotten me through a great many long night/morning at the craps table.

So, when shadowy forces who, as far as I can tell, are either in the employ of Big Coffee or Big Italian Digestif, sent me today’s drink, a clever and direct twist on a true cocktail classic, I decided to break my rule against home-made infusions.
