Koffie Van Brunt

Manami's Note:

This hot coffe and rum cocktail gets its name from the Dutch word for coffee (koffie) and the street (Van Brunt) where it is served at St John Frizell's Fort Defiance café-bar in Red Hook, Brooklyn. Bon Appetit Magazine, November 2009 edition. I am not a drinker now but the combination of this drink has got to be a winner! ;)
