Nitro Espresso Old Fashioned
One of our favorite holiday drinks is an espresso old fashioned - a riff on the classic cocktail featuring a perfect shot of espresso instead of a measure of liquor. The added texture of the nitro- induced head also boosts the aromatic qualities of the drink, thanks to thousands of little bubbles that increase the surface area and release little puffs of aroma as the head deflates and settles.
