After-Dinner Drinks: Smooth Nightcaps & Digestifs ☕️🍸
Settle in with after-dinner drinks that bring the meal to a graceful close. From silky dessert cocktails like an Espresso Martini, Irish Coffee, or White Russian to elegant digestifs served neat—think Amaro, Port, Sherry, or Cognac—there’s a perfect sip for every sweet tooth and every mood.
For extra indulgence, pair your glass with something from Desserts, or keep it light with a low-ABV herbal aperitivo-style finish. Pro tip: use chilled glassware, freshly pulled espresso or hot coffee, clear ice, and a fragrant garnish (orange zest, grated chocolate, or nutmeg) to make your nightcap bar-quality at home.
