Videography is on point!! And I can't tell you guys how helpful it is to have the ingredients list on the left. Steve and Kat, you guys are awesome!!

Such a legend. Well done mate. Good luck to everyone entering the Coffee Cocktail Challenge!

[@StevetheBartender_]

Thanks Mr Black team! Excited for official challenge opening on the 16th! 🎉

[@DJ-fn3jm]

You have really taken the channel to another level. The recipe on the screen as well as the outtakes really stepped it up.

[@KevinKos]

Not sure if I'll be able to get my hands on any Mr. Black but I'll for sure join the challenge with homemade coffee liqueur, sub the recipe with Mr.Black and hope for the best! These are great recipes, love the simple combinations, especially coffee and rye!

Kevin, next time we shoot I want Mr. Black, served with warm, creamy milk foam.

Yeah I probably should have brought back some MrBlack instead of Vegemite from my trip to Australia, sorry guys 😅

I only just recently discovered Mr Black, and it instantly became a permanent fixture in my refrigerator. Great with bourbon, rye coffee or just on its own (or with cream in a white russian).

[@lecudig92]

there is no better coffee cocktail than CARAJILLO, liquor 43 and expresso shaked, simply delicious.

What a handy tutorial, I dig it. Coffee cocktails have been growing on me, course I mostly just pour whiskey into coffee.

Steve, The four cocktails looked great. And the outtakes... I thought I was looking at me. They were hilarious.

Excellent 👏👏👏 I love those two at the start. Coffee & alcohol ... can't go wrong especially in the afternoon 👍🤔🤔🤔

I like espresso martini. good looking. slowly change to three layer different color. less ingredients, easy to make it.

[@mikoajrudnicki5272]

Love the simplicity! Will try for sure! ❤

[@aaronhughson285]

@Steve the Bartender Just made the Dominicana with the additional bar spoon of simple syrup. I also took the spring from a Hawthorne strainer and whipped it along with the cream and remaining drink mix to thicken for the float. Amazing cocktail to say the least.

[@rahulcharkha645]

You could add 15 ml spiced sugar syrup to add more dimension to the cold fashioned.

[@Cocktailnyymi]

I just did the 60ml Mr. Black + 30ml Espresso one. IT. IS. GLORIOUS!

I think I have one of the only bottles of Mr Black in Canada. My brother lives just outside of Brisbane and brought me one a few weeks back on a visit. Excellent product and I can't wait until it's available here. The Cold-Fashioned I made with it was great. Will definitely be trying your espresso martini as that looked great and simple.

[@mtownz6215]

2:00 tried it with just mr blacks and espresso. with mr blacks alone as liqour its a little sweet and thick dsand need to be cut with vodka to give it that citrus note. otherwise its pretty much mr blacks straight . Which is delicious on its own.

[@daffyduck9711]

Anybody else agree how amazing Steve's energy is?!

[@Shortboard74]

If you get your hands on some beetroot juice, try this one: 20 ml Coffee liquor 20 ml Vodka 10-20 ml of beetroot juice, depending on the "beetrootiness" and the darkness of red you like. 20 ml of cream/ whole milk (optional egg-white/ vegan replacement) Finish with chocolate bitters. Shake and strain to an OTR- glass or a nice coupe.

[@StevetheBartender_]

Definitely sounds interesting - you should enter it in the comp!

[@lollahz]

cocktails with coffee are always a pleasure

[@StevetheBartender_]

100% agree!

[@Fuzzyhead5060]

You mentioned that the dominicana could use a sugar component. Instead of simple syrup, would sweetened heavy cream work as well? Or do you want the sugar in the drink instead?

[@StevetheBartender_]

Cream that you sweeten yourself? Or a particular store bought sweeter cream? I'm sure sweetened cream would work well too...

[@TheTribalBarGuy]

Glad the anticipation is finally over; and congratulations for the opportunity. Sounds super exciting. In the video it says Start date 16th of NOV and End date 11th of NOV. Even if it is in reverse, so initially the competition is just for a week, right? Once more, awesome news Steve. Cheers!

[@StevetheBartender_]

Bleep maybe? I want to try the Coffee Old Fashioned. Yum!

[@andrasx1247]

I have not tried any coffee liqueur's other than Kahlua. Would using Kahlua in any of these recipes mess up taste profile too much? or would it be a decent substitute to the Mr Black Coffee Liqueur?

[@brhop1982]

Mr. Black's is not nearly as sweet and has way more coffee flavor compared to Kahlua. Mr Black = black coffee or espresso vs Kahlua = latte or cappuccino.

[@mszoomy]

I think I'll like the Espresso Martini Love your bloopers. Can you sweeten the creme on the Dominicana?

[@StevetheBartender_]

I like that idea! Sweeten the cream itself and then float it... brilliant idea. I'm going to try it tonight..

[@mszoomy]

@@StevetheBartender_ let me know how it goes. Whipped sweet cream float or too foamy?

[@StevetheBartender_]

I’ll try just whipping in some sugar to my cream... or maybe just add some simple otherwise it will turn into a meringue... 😂

I will make all of them thank you for giving the recipes👍👍

Most welcome! I’m interested to know which is your favourite!

[@Pammellam]

Thank you for all the fun enjoyable videos! I enjoy learning about making cocktails with you! You make it seem so easy to do! I got my own shaker and I’m starting to make a list of what I need to collect and buy for my own bar.

[@timothymathews8711]

Is Mr. Black a great liqueur? I'm looking for something to replace mudpuddle coffee vodka, and I think that is probably it. Thoughts?

[@DanielJBo]

Hey Steve, great video! Unfortunately I couldn't find any Mr. Black in israel, so I wanted to know if I can use some other coffee liquor (the one that starts with K and ends with AHLUA) with same measurements? Thanks!

[@StevetheBartender_]

The recipe submitted needs to contain Mr Black... Kahlua has a lot more sugar so the measurements would need to be tweaked.. For example, the Dominicana - I like it with a touch of sugar with Mr Black. If I used Kahlua, I definitely wouldn’t add sugar as it would then be too sweet..

[@Ebtoulson]

I just got my first order in from mr black, unfortunately it's not sold in stores where I live. I've never tried to come up with my own cocktail before but I'll definitely give this one a go.

[@StevetheBartender_]

Too bad I can't join the competition as it's not worldwide. I've been working on a really nice coffee cocktail that combines scotch (I'm finding Aberfeldy 16yo works great), Coffee, Licor 43, tonic water and a splash of lemon juice. Kind of counter-intuitive combination of flavors, but surprisingly (or not) really, really pleasant and flavorful.

[@loki200]

Did you made a barraquito jet in your Videos? Thats one of my favourits when it comes to coffee :) Thanks for the great Video, the crema really looked stunning ;)

How fun! What a great idea especially for all us coffee lovers

[@apankr]

Hey Steve. Awesome video, but I have a question. Should the espresso be hot or should I let it cool down first?

[@Ronfa12]

Your video is sponsored by Mr Black so it's only fitting you use it for these cocktails but i'd like to suggest another take on the Coffee Negroni. Put two jiggers(20z side) of coffee beans in a low tumbler, fill with campari, cover with plastic wrap and let it steep for 24 hours. The next day make a classic Negroni using the coffee infused campari and garnish with an orange zest. I used to make it in my bar and was one of everyone's favorite drinks. It totally changes the perspective of Negroni from an aperitif to an after dinner drink but still is extremely balanced. If you'd like to amp up the coffee tast even more just add some ground coffee to the beans and then the next day strain through a coffe filter, aldo using a dash of orange bitters makes it even better.

[@adrianwahl5107]

NICE!!! But I wanted you to make the Coffee Mai Tai ;)

Yes, you can substitute for an alternative coffee liqueur.. keep in mind that Mr Black has a stronger, fresh coffee flavour and less sugar... so might need to adjust your recipe based on the choice of liqueur.

Hey Steve, love your content. And love coffee and booze. Thanks for the vid. I have been working on figuring out a cocktail, maybe you can try it out and I would love to know what you think. Base is equal parts coffee liqueur and tonic water (not unlike an espresso tonic). I have found, that depeding on the kind of coffee liqueur and tonic it really brings out the sweetness and fruityness of both the coffee and the tonic. I was thinking you could go in a herbal direction with adding bitters and a bit of thyme and maybe gin, or build it into something creamy not unlike a white russian. I would love if you could give me feedback on what you think. Keep the good stuff coming! Cheers (BIIIIIIIG SMILE)

Is the Jameson Cold Brew, the same idea as the "Mr. Black"?

[@StevetheBartender_]

I haven’t tried the Jameson’s Cold Brew yet... but it would be made with a whiskey base whilst Mr Black is made using Australian wheat vodka. Both coffee liqueurs but probably quite different..
