For those Barfly fans you'll know that Mr. Black has long been our favorite Coffee Liqueur. So much so that I brought it into Cole's the minute I tasted it and it became our default. I'm sure those of you who are uninitiated and try this product will agree. Hope you all have fun mixing!

This is the third cocktail channel video I’ve seen that features Mr Black. I’m starting to think that this whole espresso martini resurgence happened because Mr Black’s marketing team pushed this stuff HARD and paid a bunch of content creators to advertise their product

[@glenngallegos]

I love these multi-drink episodes. They open more doors using some of the same ingredients.

[@LydiaXythali]

that espresso martini foam was T H I C C, and I appreciated the unexpected f-bomb.

[@ItsMe-fs4df]

Went to a bar the other day with the husband, he asked what I was thinking of getting... 'Something to wake me up, and something to f**k me up', the barman pops up from nowhere and says 'You after an Espresso Martini?' It's now my most favourite bar in the world (their whisky selection doesn't hurt either)

[@CoachVinoLLC]

🎶The best part of waking up, is Mr. Black in your cuuup!🎶 🥃☕️

[@MrBlackSpirits]

Love it

[@LilCreps]

That last cocktail is the embodiment of FIRE.

[@spiff829]

Can’t wait to try these! But please oh please don’t exclude tasting notes. They turn a helpful instructional and informational video into something even better: a shared experience. Plus they help me prioritize what to make first. Thanks for the great content!

[@PremierWu12]

The Afternoon Delight sounds absolutely fantastic!

[@willhoffmann128]

Finally made the Cafe con Leche Flip and it's even better than I thought it would be. Usually I use Kraken as my black rum because of the allspice flavor of Cruzan but that flavor totally works in this cocktail. Thanks!

[@ChemicalMarco]

Oh that Afternoon Delight sounds amazing!!

I'm in the same boat Kevin, and I might have to get off my chair and make your coffee liqueur too! It looks very nice and because you clearly explained the process, I have very few excuses left.

[@KevinKos]

@@AccursedSlug thanks! I can't it will yield the same result as Mr. Black but it makes for some nice cocktails. And if you want to check out another awesome coffee liqueur recipe make sure to watch the latest video from @Truffles on the rocks - he made his with vodka.

@@KevinKos I can't get Mr. Black either where I live. But these are definitely same great recipes. I will have to make some coffee liqueur as well.

I was fortunate to find Mr. Black at my local Bevmo. Even better, it was part of their 5 cent sale.

[@jlb9074]

These are great. I’ve been stuck on Carajillos for my go-to coffee drink!

[@elizabethgeorge168]

Cold Brew Negroni sounds interesting! I liked the Black Shamrock from Saint Patrick's Day, so this one reminds me of a gin version of that.

[@stupidhatonthefloor3]

Excited for this one!

[@Tywop11]

To be honest, this is your best video. Nice cuts, flawless presentations, incredible creative recipes. Just perfect. I am only a little sad because everything you used is soooo expensive in Brazil. It's really a shame.

I have a recipe identical to your Black Irish in my recipe document, called the "Black Shamrock", not entirely sure where I yoinked it from but it has the exact same proportions and even the same garnish (minus flaming).

[@MrBad1818]

Need to try the mr black brand

[@jesseclaes3894]

I have the same espresso machine at home (but then the European Solis branded "version"). I like the simple machine, it is a great addition to any home bar, it gets you into the whole barista world without breaking the bank :)

[@Runge_was_here]

Which model is it? Could see Breville but couldn't tell for sure the specific one? Lol

[@jesseclaes3894]

@@Runge_was_here The Solis (EU) variant is called "Caffespresso Pro 117", Breville (US) calls it "The Infuser". It's an older model at this point so not sure if you could find it. I'd recommend taking a look at James Hoffmann and Seattle Coffee Gear YT channels to see what is best ATM :)

[@lewismaclean8849]

To Mr Leandro, I’m making espresso martinis soon for a family dinner. I’m thinking of the simple syrup used in this incredible recipe. Just wondering, if I was to make the simple syrup, what would be the most simple way to make a small batch of simple syrup?( I’m making enough espresso martinis for three people.) Thanks again for the advice and education. Your the best bartender I’ve ever seen.

[@G.T.01]

Absolutely delicious, thanks for these cocktails! LOVE coffee-based cocktails =D Sorry if I'm mistaken, but did you miss listing Gin as an ingredient in the Cold-Brew Negroni in the shownotes? Edit: Also, the video says you use the egg yolk in the Cafe con Leche flip, but shownotes say 1 Egg white? Sorry again if I'm missing something and am just sounding stupid!

[@statix6979]

Wow

[@Crime_Lab]

Word, Mr. Black! Signed: Mr. Black ⬛️

Totally planning on picking up some Mr. Black once my Patron Xo Cafe runs out! Hopefully, it's still in stock then!

Leandro: which coffee cocktail would you like? me: yes. Looks amazing and tasty! 🤤 I am happy that I was introduced to the world of cocktails. Such a nice community too!

[@matthew_reeves]

For the Flip, what blackstrap rum did you use? I always have trouble finding rums that are labeled as blackstrap, even though sometimes they will have the word "black" on the label.

[@peacecoyote1592]

I hope the restrictions are lifted soon and Cole’s can reopen!

that last cocktail the 'afternoon delight' seems WILD! lime cola ginger coffee habanero notes doesn't seem like it'll work but I bet it does

[@The.Thirsty.K]

Great recipes and video. I don't think the cola syrup recipe was included. Really want to try it. I've been looking to switch up cocktails that call for colas and use syrups instead. Thanks!

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

It’s at the bottom of the description

[@chickrepelant]

3:54 - what was the BSR you used? My homie and I were discussing black strap vs Dark vs Anejo vs Spiced - and didn't get a whole lotta answers. for Dark n Stormy's/mai tai/ jungle bird, i've been using Plantation OD

[@gabrielstrong2186]

Cross pollination between cocktail channels. Brilliant!!

[@Gprosper338]

Top. Valeu 👍🏻

[@Johnny_Shikari]

For the longest time I couldn't get Mr. Black anywhere here in Germany and even now that it's available it's unfortunately rather pricey at about 30 bucks per bottle. Luckily i found a really good Berlin based coffee liqueur called Co'ps. It's infused with cola nuts and isn't overly sweet so it would probably work really well in your Afternoon Delight (named after the song, or a scene in Anchorman^^?)

[@bravowhiskey4684]

I still can’t get Mr. Black here yet either, but I did find Coppermuse version to stand in for now. It’s pretty good, but very sweet so I cut down on simple most of the time.

[@MrBlackSpirits]

Where are you based?

[@boozeontherocks]

Great cocktails Leandro, served in style. I would love to have seen you behind the bar! Which is your favorite of of the five?

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

Probably all of them LOL. You know I have such trouble choosing!

[@boozeontherocks]

@@TheEducatedBarfly Me too. That would make for a good afternoon with friends.

[@vg10barca]

What’s something similar to the black strap rum if I can’t find that bottle?

[@ethangillese]

Oh man! Crossing my fingers for either Mr Black to come to Canada or for the things to die down so I can cross the border if worse comes to worse!

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

I have the feeling Writer's tears would be so good in your Black Irish! Oh and I'm always amazed when some say they envy cold weather. For sure you never experienced a rough winter. I'm sure if you ever do, you'll never leave Cali again LOL

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

I grew up in Boston. I know what winter is. That said if you ever lived in a place that has just slight temp changes for each season, you’d get what I mean

[@TrufflesOnTheRocks]

@@TheEducatedBarfly You know, I'm just a grinch who hates winter. So many of my friends love winter and outdoor sports. I hate it so bad that I just don't get it. But I do appreciate fall though. The only problem here in Quebec is it only last 2 weeks then you get 8 months of cold rough snowy windy wacky winter LOL

[@CopyCatCo]

Jesus, 110º? It's, like, 50º where I am while watching this. A coffee cocktail I really like is the Evolved Revolver from David Leibovitz, which I think has a recipe quite similar to the Black Irish in this video.

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

It’ll be 93 today...

[@DavideGiovanni]

In my espresso martini, I love to use half an ounce of Sambuca instead of simple syrup. In the end it is like making an Espresso Martini with a correct espresso. In addition, I also add a pinch of salt to bring out the taste of the coffee even more
