Caffè alla prugna giapponese by Charly Iten

Here in Switzerland we have a tradition of blending coffee with all kinds of spirits.

So why not use some Sake for that?

Inspired by the so-called “Kafi Zwätschge” (a coffee with some plum spirit) here comes my interpretation of it:

Make a cup of some great tasting Caffè Lungo, put some sugar in it (it needs to be rather sweet) and finally blend it with about 1cl of Fukuju umeshu (a premium junmai sake flavored with Japanese ume).

A wonderful hot drink for the colder season of autumn.
