My take on the original Ube Bae from False Idol in San Diego. I was there visiting friends a year ago and loved this one: nutty, toasted grains, and spiciness from both tiki-style liqueurs and the lighter base spirits. In trying to recreate it I made something totally new, but similar to my memory. The color comes form the Ube powder, a purple sweet potato whose color shifts pink when exposed to acidity.

CAFE DE CALABAZA

1 oz orange juice

1 oz coconut cream
¼ oz allspice dram
¼ oz cinnamon syrup
¼ oz falernum
¾ oz espresso liqueur
1½ oz mezcal espadín

Garnish: pineapple frond, cinnamon stick, grated nutmeg
Method: Combine all ingredients in a shaker with crushed ice, shake, and open pour into mug. Garnish with love.

It's pumpkin spice without the pumpkin! Although this type of cocktail normally makes its rounds in the fall, I still love to reach for something like it when winter stubbornly marches on. The color is nothing to write home about so I threw it into my handmade False Idol mug by Bosko. Cocktail is originally by Brian "shakerofspirits" Maxwell.
