Brave Bull

Description

The Brave Bull is what happens when tequila walks into after-dinner territory. It is only tequila and coffee liqueur, but the contrast is what makes it work: earthy agave against dark coffee sweetness, with a short, direct finish.

It is bolder than a Black Russian and less creamy than many coffee cocktails. Serve it over ice and let it dilute slowly; the tequila gets softer, the coffee opens up, and the drink becomes a simple, moody sipper for people who like their sweet cocktails with a bit of bite.
