Yes, I know that National Coffee Day is Sept. 29! But, I wanted to alert you early to this great “holiday” so that you have time to get the supplies that you need to mix up these great cocktails. Also, you need to buy some great cold brew coffee for the cocktails too – as specified in each respective recipe.
I personally will be mixing up my own coffee cocktails — with Van Gogh vodka!! The Double Expresso, Dutch Caramel and Chocolate vodkas are to die for, they are so very tasty!

These sips are so yummy. I had a good time this weekend testing out a few! Don’t try to substitute other brands. The results could be very disappointing. I tried some taste comparisons and found Van Gogh Vodka to be superior for every cocktail I tried to make!
