Here’s the recipe if you’d like to make this tasty beverage at home.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup coffee
• ½ oz Xtabentun
• ½ oz Kalua
• Whipped cream
• One orange
• Sugar

Directions:

• Moisten the edge of the cup with an orange slice and frost with sugar.
• Carmelize the sugar over an open flame.
• Place the Kalua and Xtabentun in a stainless steel container until hot.
• The liquor should then be set on fire!
• Once the flames are out, pour the coffee in the cup.
• Fill the remaining part of the cup with whipped cream.

Enjoy!

Tip: Pick up a bottle Xtabentun while visiting Mexico. Xtabentun is Mayan liquor made from honey that is native to Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula and may be difficult to track down elsewhere!
