cocktail [dessert]
This is our category to organize a diverse array of sweet drinks that began to present as cocktails in the 1890s, but probably are inspired by European after-dinner drinking traditions such as the Parisian pousse café and Italian scaffa. Famous examples include the Stinger, Alexander, Grasshopper and Irish Coffee.
We will add a sample recipe and related discussion, here, soon. —Ed.
