- 4 oz cold brew coffee
- 1 oz coffee liqueur
Finishing Ingredients:
- 2 oz cola
- 1 tbsp simple syrup

Instructions
- Chill a tall glass with ice cubes to ensure the cocktail remains frosty and refreshing.
- Pour vodka, white rum, tequila, gin, and triple sec directly into the prepared glass, creating a potent multi-spirit base.
- Gently add cold brew coffee and coffee liqueur to the spirit mixture, stirring carefully to integrate the rich coffee flavors.
- Introduce simple syrup to balance the strong alcohol profile, providing a subtle sweetness to the drink.
- Top the cocktail with cola, which adds effervescence and helps mellow the intense liquor combination.
- Use a bar spoon to delicately mix all ingredients, ensuring a uniform blend without losing carbonation.
- Fill the glass completely with fresh ice cubes to maintain optimal temperature and dilution.

Notes
- Chill your glass beforehand to maintain the cocktail’s crisp temperature and prevent rapid ice melting.
- Adjust spirit ratios for personalized strength, using less alcohol for a milder version or more for extra kick.
- Experiment with cold brew brands to discover unique coffee flavor profiles that complement the multi-spirit base.
- Consider non-alcoholic alternatives by replacing spirits with coffee-infused mocktail ingredients for a sober-friendly adaptation.
