Cuisine: Irish
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 can Guinness
- 1 cup brewed coffee
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Vegan whipped cream for topping
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 can of Guinness, 1 cup of brewed coffee, 1/4 cup of cocoa powder, 1/4 cup of maple syrup, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and vegan whipped cream for topping.
- In a medium saucepan, pour in the can of Guinness. Place the saucepan over medium heat and allow the Guinness to warm up gently. Do not let it boil.
- While the Guinness is heating, brew your coffee. You can use any method you prefer, such as a French press, drip coffee maker, or espresso machine. Once brewed, set aside.
- Once the Guinness is warm, add the brewed coffee to the saucepan. Stir gently to combine the two liquids.
- Next, sift in the cocoa powder to avoid any lumps. Stir continuously until the cocoa powder is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- Add the maple syrup to the saucepan. This will provide sweetness and balance the bitterness of the cocoa and coffee. Stir well to incorporate.
- Add the teaspoon of vanilla extract to the mixture. This will enhance the flavors and add a lovely aroma. Stir until well combined.
- Allow the mixture to simmer on low heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will help the flavors meld together beautifully.
- After simmering, taste the chili and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more maple syrup according to your preference.
- Once the chili is ready, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly before serving.
- To serve, ladle the Vegan Chilli Guinness Chocolate Coffee into bowls. Top each serving with a generous dollop of vegan whipped cream for added richness and a delightful presentation.
- Enjoy your Vegan Chilli Guinness Chocolate Coffee warm, savoring the unique blend of flavors!
Tips
- Temperature is Key: Warm the Guinness gently to preserve its rich flavor profile. Never let it boil, as this can alter the taste and cause bitterness.
- Quality Matters: Use high-quality cocoa powder and freshly brewed coffee for the most intense flavor experience.
- Customize Your Sweetness: Start with the recommended maple syrup amount, but don't be afraid to adjust to your personal taste preferences.
- Smooth Operator: Sift the cocoa powder to prevent lumps and ensure a silky-smooth texture.
- Patience is a Virtue: Allow the mixture to simmer slowly, which helps the flavors meld and develop a more complex taste.
- Whipped Cream Wow Factor: Use a high-quality vegan whipped cream to add a luxurious finishing touch that elevates the entire drink.
- Serve Immediately: This drink is best enjoyed warm, so time your preparation to serve right after cooking.
