Included on Rochelle’s lunch menu was a local favourite of koeksister infused with Amarula Ethiopian Coffee and crudites with Amarula dipping sauce. Then Lazy Makoti served the likes of hasselback kara baked sweet potato bake infused with Amarula Ethiopian coffee and coffee and Amarula Ethopian Coffee roasted duck legs.
The brand had commissioned a one of a kind cocktail by mixologist Alex Fahrenheim.
“The Ama-Tini is inspired by the coffee based espresso martini cocktail, but it can lend itself to being even better than it is. We improved on it by adding that creaminess and bolstering that coffee taste and a little bit of cinnamon to tie it in a bow,” explains Alex.
