This past winter I was in Zermatt, Switzerland, the home of the Matterhorn, excellent skiing & the most amazing family owned restaurant Chez Vrony. A more detailed post on this rustic cafe will happen…but in the mean time happy Friday & I hope you have a spectacular happy hour ~ with these Cafe Leni cocktails! This weekend is super busy here in Telluride, CO. We have our final BIG summer festival Blues & Brews. A three day weekend packed with amazing music, great friends & lots of photography. I have a media pass so i’ll be reporting a lot & posting to Instagram & Twitter to keep you in the loop. The front liner bands include the Violent Femmes, George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic and Peter Frampton. Many more bands as well throughout the weekend! Last year the festival was a giant mud pit ~ the rain kept a coming. But this year the skies will be bluebird & the temps in the 70’s. Perfect festival weather! It will look like this outside… OK. Now back to warming cocktails. And the Swiss Matterhorn… (can you you tell how much I adore the mountains!) That’s the view from Chez Vrony. When you are skiing hard nothin’ is better than Swiss Raclette & a Cafe Leni (maybe a glass of wine in the mix too!) This cocktail will be your go to fall/winter treat. Pinky promise. If you are gonna try it this weekend great, you will be glad you did. Isn’t Amaretto divine? Mixed with espresso & whipped cream even more so. This is the perfect fireplace & dessert cocktail. If you are gonna bookmark it for the cooler weather (our mornings are all ready in the 30’s) then please do so. Pin it too while your at it…. This drink is served with steamy espresso on the side. I like to sip the Amaretto & whipped cream & then some coffee. When about half way through the glass I pour in the espresso into the shot glass. The combination is heavenly! Here’s to a great weekend! Oh by the way. Here’s another coffee cocktail you gotta try.
