Cometeer

The Cometeer cocktail is a bold, modern creation for coffee lovers and cocktail enthusiasts alike. Inspired by the innovative flash-frozen coffee pods that share its name, this drink blends rich espresso with velvety chocolate and a touch of warmth from whiskey, resulting in a complex, smooth, and slightly sweet sipper. Perfect for after dinner or as an energizing pick-me-up, the Cometeer is as sophisticated as it is approachable.
