Maple Espresso Bourbon Cream

Heather Wibbels
Perfect for Espresso Martini Lovers: Rich, creamy, and fridge-stable for two months (not that it ever lasts that long). This DIY bourbon cream is a coffee lover’s dream—perfect in hot chocolate, espresso martinis, or just poured over ice. Makes 1 one-liter bottle - you’ll want to double or triple this.
