If you like ending your meal with a specialty coffee, this Boozy Bourbon Iced Coffee After Dinner Drink is dessert in a glass!
Are you a coffee lover? Do you like to spice it up with some alcohol? For all those iced coffee, bourbon fanatics out there, sipping one of these after your meal will be delightful.
I am a coffee lover. I drink it everyday, several times a day. I don’t function well till I have my morning cup of freshly brewed joe. Having an afternoon latte is my favourite way to have a bit of “me time”. Adding a delicious little treat with it doesn’t hurt either. I’m not picky, brownies, tarts, cookies, all work for me.
When it comes to alcoholic coffees, they are in a league of their own. Whether they are cold or hot, specialty coffees are always a hit (remember drinking age only here). With so many variations, there is never a dull moment in your coffee drinking world.
FAVOURITE COFFEE DRINK
If I had to choose my favourite coffee drink, I would say a latte. Something about warm steamy milk that is so relaxing. Add in some flavours like vanilla, cinnamon or seasonal favourites like gingerbread, and I am a happy camper.
Making lattes at home is not as difficult as you may think. The most important part is quality coffee. If the coffee is crap, it’s all downhill from there. Grind freshly roasted beans for the absolute best flavour.
If you have some local coffee roasters in your area, pay them a visit. You just might be surprised at what you will learn from these coffee masters. We totally loved visiting Trebilcock Coffee Roasters. These guys sure know what they are doing, and we came home with some mighty fine beans too.
We don’t have a fancy espresso machine, (it is on the top of my wish list) we use a hand held frother (affiliate link) to make the foam. Now if only I could figure out how to do some awesome latte art I could really impress my guests.
ALCOHOLIC COFFEE DRINKS
The choice here is endless. You can use so many different spirits to make these delicious drinks. During the Christmas season, I don’t even know how many Rum & Eggnog Lattes go out of my kitchen.
My husband has been trying out some different brands of bourbons. The aroma of the vanilla/caramel tones is so appealing. Checking out his supply, Jefferson’s Reserve and Woodford Reserve were my choices of the day.
Summer is finally here, so some iced coffee with alcohol is name of the game for now. He was thrilled when I handed him this Boozy Bourbon Iced Coffee. Simple to make, easy to drink. I just used cold strong coffee, and bourbon. You can always sweeten if necessary, but the drizzle does take care of that for most people.
How can you go wrong with great coffee, excellent bourbon, whipped cream and some chocolate and caramel drizzle? Sounds like dessert in a glass to me. Nothing like ending your meal with a booze infused after dinner coffee.

Yes getting really fresh coffee is amazing for sure.
Love an iced coffee drink!
Yes especially on a hot summer day.

Yes…that would be perfect.
Oh mY Goodness!! I wish I could grab it off the screen … 😀 Lovely recipe and beautiful clicks too !!
Thanks so much. Hope you give it a try.
I’m going to have to add this to my alcoholic coffee cocktail repertoire! I’ve done one with cinnamon whiskey, but this one looks so much better!!
Well now…that sounds delicious too!!
YUM! Perfect way to cool down this summer! I can see this for an afternoon treat on the porch, after all vacation began today!
Well ENJOY!!
OMG, I wish I could grab it out of the screen – it sounds so refreshing!!! I’ve recently developed a taste for bourbon and these days I’m experimenting a lot with it and this would definitely be a delicious treat to make.
Hope you give it a try…it is delicious.
Umm yes please!!! I could go for this right now. Sounds too good, actually anything with bourbon is too good! Thanks for sharing!
You are welcome…hope you enjoy it!!
Iced Coffee and that too boozy, I can have it anytime. The pictures make it so tempting. I wish I could have one right now.
Well I hope you give it a try! ENJOY!!
Oooh, we love a boozy coffee on the weekend. This would be a nice change up from the usual kaluha.
If you are a bourbon lover…this is for you. ENJOY!!
My hubby’s two favorite things, coffee and bourbon!!! He has been busy as a bee this weekend building my backyard oasis so this is going to be a nice treat for him tonight!!! I can’t wait to try it out.
Yes I would agree he will love the delicious treat you make for him.
Oh my heavens! This is absolutely stunning, and what a combination of ingredients. Coffee, bourbon, caramel, chocolate. I am in heaven.
HAHAH….well I hope you give it a try.
I looooooove iced coffee! I might just have to have this for breakfast. Bourbon is totally a breakfast food. 😉
HAHAH…enjoy anytime of day you like.
I’m definitely to try this soon. I don’t drink hot coffee but I love ice coffee and that bourbon just takes it to the next level
Well if it ever warms up here…iced coffee certainly is great.
Wow – this looks incredible! I am also a big coffee drinker. and I love Bourbon too. Great combo – looks so decadent and delicious!
Thanks so much, hope you give it at try.
Yes, I’m a coffee drinker! Yes, I love a shot or two of an alcoholic beverage in my coffee. And yes, it would be a nice finish to my day. We used to have an espresso maker with a frother but it went kaput!! And you’re so right — the drink is only as good as the coffee. Now, you’re making me hanker for a good coffee drink. Have a great weekend.
Thanks so much. Yes good coffee is key…and a great bourbon too.
You got me at bourbon and coffee great pairing. I want one now! Seriously I need to make this coffee soon looks amazing. Your photography is superb too.
Thanks so much. Hope you give it a try.
this sounds overly indulgence and like the perfect way to celebrate! I’m not a drinker so this isn’t necessarily for me.
Well you can always add some flavoured syrup to the coffee instead.
Absolutely awesome! I love iced coffees and I just love boozy coffees, so this one is definitely for me. My booze of choice is always Baileys but I’ll have to go get me some bourbon to try out!
Well I think Baileys would work great here too.
Such beautiful photography!
Thanks so much.
Yes, I am a coffee lover and yes, I want to add bourbon. Looks awesome!
I’m not even a bourbon drinker…and I liked it…made it for hubby!!
I love coffee too and my favorite is a good french vanilla cappuccino. I do love your iced coffee but I’ll take the virgin version :).
No problem Fred….boozy coffee isn’t for everyone. I like cappuccino too.
This sounds way too rich to be a drink. It is more of a dessert!
HAHAH…well it isn’t as sweet as you may think.
That’s what I need anytime !! why only after dinner? Apart from the bourbon ,all my favorite ingredients.yum yum!
You can always sub in another type of alcohol if you like.
That iced coffee looks so refreshing. Love the kick of bourbon
Yup…perfect for a hot summer evening.
Now that’s taking coffee to a whole new level.. Yes please. It’s so hot here and I’m so tired I could REALLY use one of those right now. YUM!
HAHAH…well the iced coffee might help…but the bourbon probably would make you more tired.
Nothing like a boozy coffee to finish up the day with a topping of smooth whipped cream! All in!
HAHAH…yes it is good for sure.
I also need a couple of good strong coffees every day so I can function! Alcoholic coffee is one of my favourite drinks to enjoy when I go out for dinner at the end of the meal but I’ve never tried a cold one before. I’m sure it’s really refreshing!
Perfect for summer.
Totally my kind of drink. Such a fun drink to serve at a party.
Yup, easy, fun and delicious all in one.
Yumm!!! Bourbon in coffee is totally a thing here in bourbon country! One of the distilleries here even has a coffee and bourbon drink to sample on your tasting tour.. it’s AMAZING!
My husband loves bourbon…I love the aroma!!
Wow! Just when I thought coffee couldn’t get any better. I’m sure this will become some people’s favorite cold drink this summer 😉
HAHAH…give it a try.
I do love a boozy after dinner drink that can double as dessert. Caramel and bourbon, mmmm 🙂
Yes the combination of flavours does work well here.
Oh my this looks like fun! You managed to combine some of my favorite things! I can totally see how refreshing this can be when you’re ready to unwind!
Yes you can never go wrong with a quick and easy after dinner drink…and dessert in one!!
Holy Moly, this sounds amazing! This would be perfect for a dinner party!
HAHAH…or just because!!
So decadent! I love coddle any time of day and night!
That was supposed to say coffee!
HAHAHAH….that is funny!! It made me laugh.
Yup…coddling is good too!!
Oooh yes please this sounds like a great way to finish a meal! A digestif and pudding all in one!
Yes it is delicious.
