Wolfgang Puck is proposing an alternative to traditional holiday eggnog, one that involves his culinary iced coffee. The Wolf is an iced mocha twist on a traditional Irish coffee and is a low-calorie alternative.
"I've created The Wolf to serve as a West Coast version of eggnog," said Wolfgang Puck. "It's creamy and satisfying, and is the perfect way to celebrate the holidays and ring in the New Year at home, at an office party, during a night on the town, or anywhere! It has a beautiful coffee aroma, a little bit of sweetness, and shaken up with these ingredients . . . perfection."
The Wolf calls for 4 ounces Wolfgang Puck Double Blend Mocha Iced Coffee, 1 1/2 ounces Jameson Whisky and 1/4 ounce Tia Maria, then shake and strain into a cold martini glass. For a little extra holiday cheer, add a dollop of whipped cream and sprig of mint.
