How to make the Roman Holiday coffee cocktail

Welcome to the MF Products UK blog where we, enthusiasts of all things pertaining to food and drink, are here to talk about another coffee cocktail that can be made using our own MF Products. Today we will be discussing the ‘roman holiday’ cocktail which is an undated version on the original ‘Jungle Bird’. The roman holiday instead uses an Italian liqueur called Amaro Meletti which is often regarded as bittersweet. This liqueur used in the Roman holiday includes botanicals including anise, clove, gentian, orange peel, saffron and violet flower. Another liqueur added is Campari and it’s tinges of orange shine through the beverage to establish a pleasant yet alternative taste. After that, the ‘roman holiday consists of pineapple juice, lime juice, demerara syrup and cold-brew MF Coffee. The MF team don’t typically advise this, but we added a pinch of salt to allow the ingredients within the glass to pop out.

So, how do you make it?

Firstly, let’s get the ingredients.

Ingredients:

-           1 ounce Amaro Meletti

-          1/4 ounce Campari

-          1 ounce of cold brew MF Coffee

-          3/4 ounce pineapple juice, freshly squeezed

-          3/4 ounce lime juice, freshly squeezed

-          1/4 ounce demerara syrup

-          1 pinch sea salt

-          Garnish: cinnamon stick

Method:

1)      Add all of the ingredients into a shaker with ice and shake until well-chilled.

 

2)      Strain into a double rocks glass over crushed ice.

 

3)      Garnish with a cinnamon stick.

What can coffee do for your skin?

Good morning everyone, welcome back to another edition of The MF Products Blog. Today we’re going to be looking at coffee and what it can do for you cosmetically. Specifically, the largest organ on your body. No, its not the liver. It’s in fact, the skin. Yes! The skin that’s all over your body is indeed an organ and since it’s everywhere we should take the most care with it. At least that’s what we think at MF Products .   Anyways, many people go through life having sensitive skin and they endure this treacherous and tedious search in trying to find that ‘special’ cream that will magically dispose of any breakouts or redness when really there’s a game changer right in front of them (not literally, but you get where I’m going with this). The truth is… MF Coffee has been the saviour this whole time. In fact, a study was published that showed that Japanese women between the ages of 30 to 60 who drank coffee had significantly less markers of aging. So that meant less wrinkles ...

How to make the MF Soursop smoothie.

  Good evening MF Blog readers, we hope you all are staying active during this cold Christmas season. As the year draws to a close, MF Products still have a variety of tasty recipes to broadcast and this week we will be looking at how we can use our MF Soursop to make some delightful treats. Today we will be making our very own MF Soursop smoothie with bananas and almonds. We chose bananas due it’s alpha and beta carotene content when consumed by the body, this then turns in vitamin A. Bananas are also a good source of potassium and due to its low water content, it contains more calories and is more filling. This pairs wonderfully with the benefits of soursop (previously mentioned in another blog) as it; possesses antioxidants, fights against bacteria, and boosts the immune system. Almonds are also very beneficial as they contain unsaturated fats, fibre, magnesium as well as protein. When adding all three ingredients together, this is a very healthy smoothie that will help to ...

What is the best type of coffee?

Good evening my MF Product Blog readers, it’s been a while but we’re back with more content for you guys. Today, we saw a reader ask, “Out of all the different types of coffee, which one is the best?” and we believe it’s a great question. However, we also think that it depends on what you’re drinking for and that is what we will be investing in todays MF Blog . So, without further ado let’s get into this. A good cup of coffee is one that does whatever job it is that you assign it. Whether it be the most rank, percolated cup of coffee that you’re in dire need off for that extra boost or the most complex mocha made with MF Coffee that finesses your tongue with a touch of foam while you eat an olive shortbread. I know, fancy. The point is that there are so many variations of coffee to tickle your fancy. So, given that there are lattes, cappuccinos, and mochas the point this is that, while the ingredients are simple, the experience is not. There is nothing crazy about ordering a capp...
