How to Make a Sombrero
An excellent dessert drink, the Sombrero is basically a White Russian with one less alcoholic ingredient—and a south-of-the-border name.

- Step 2: Pour in liqueur Pour in the 2 oz. of coffee liqueur.
- Step 3: Add cream or milk Add the 4 oz. of cream or milk.

- TIP: Some bartenders like to make this drink in a cocktail shaker, actually whipping the cream as they shake the drink.
