Pariisin Varpunen / Nikolaschka / La Môme Piaf


Pariisin Varpunen / Nikolaschka / 
La Môme Piaf


Hi everyone! Today I made a shot called Pariisin Varpunen (La môme Piaf / Little Sparrow) / Nikolaschka. Depending on the main ingredient used. The recipe I got from a Finnish cocktail-magazine in which many different cognac based cocktails/drinks were represented. I shall be doing more of them later in the coming weeks.

If you want to try something really extraordinary, give this one a try. It is definitely different :D
  • 4 cl cognac (for a Vodka Nikolaschka use vodka instead)
  • a thick slice of orange/lemon
  • ~1 tsp instant coffee powder
  • ~1 tsp fine caster sugar
Put the alcohol in a snifter/small tumbler. Layer the citrus slice on top with the coffee and sugar side by side. Now at this point you can still make a choice:
  1. Drink the liquor and bite on the citrus
  2. Bite on the citrus and then drink the liquor
I opted for the 2nd one. Also, I prefered the cognac-based shooter way better. Or then the vodka needs to be properly chilled, which in this case wasn't. Nonetheless, in case you really want to surprise your guests with an after-dinner "cocktail", try this one! :D
