Maple Syrup Coffee Liqueur
Maple Syrup Coffee Liqueur

Those who love coffee, rum and North Woods maple syrup will be pleased to know there is a maple syrup coffee liqueur. Liqueur coffee comes with various sources of alcohol but Ardilla Negra from the Black Squirrel Distillery is the first use of maple syrup for this purpose. Buffalo Rising reports that a local distillery in Buffalo, New York has a new coffee liqueur product, Ardilla Negra Maple Coffee Liqueur. By the way, ardilla negra is Spanish for black squirrel.
The Buffalo distillery that is known for ingeniously using NY State maple trees to create its line of spirits, has struck sugary gold again. Black Squirrel Distillery is unveiling its third distilled product in the form of Ardilla Negra Maple Coffee Liqueur. The distillery, discretely camouflaged at the corner of Elmwood and Amherst, first opened a little over a year ago. Since that time, the outfit has been busy producing its initial varietal, Aged Maple Spirit, along with its spin-off product, Mapleshine.
The newest distilled masterpiece to utilize Grade A New York State maple syrup is sure to become a household favorite in no time. According to the distillers, the maple has been blended with a proprietary cold brew coffee blend and aged Caribbean rum, giving the concoction a completely unique flavor profile that will appeal to a wide variety of coffee, maple and/or rum fans.

Irish Coffee
Irish coffee has been around for quite some time. We wrote about making the organic variety. But you can modify this recipe with maple syrup liqueur.
Organic All the Way
Start your organic Irish coffee with Panama Mountain Grown organic coffee or coffee from Colombia. You can order organic whiskey from if they do not have any at your local liquor store. Use organic brown sugar and organic whipping cream. Because of all the cooler ingredients you will be adding make sure that you start with hot coffee poured into a pre-heated glass. For each cup of organic Irish coffee use the following:
• Coffee mug (A glass mug is traditional.)
• Tablespoon
• 4 ounces of hot coffee freshly ground and brewed organic coffee
• 1 ounce of organic, preferably Irish, whiskey
• 2 teaspoonful of brown sugar
• 1 ounce of organic double cream whipped just lightly
The Steps
• Have everything ready.
• Warm your coffee mug.
• Put the brown sugar into the glass and then add the hot organic coffee.
• Stir until the sugar dissolves.
• Add the whiskey and stir again.
• Add the cream by pouring gently over the back side of the tablespoon so that the whipped cream sits on top of the coffee.
• A little cinnamon and or nutmeg sprinkled on top of the whipped cream are an American addition to this treat and are optional.
If you want to spruce up your maple syrup coffee liqueur, consider using this liqueur instead of Irish whiskey and skipping the brown sugar.
Sugar Free Ginger Maple Syrup and Ginger Maple Cream
'Tis the season to treat the taste buds, but there is no need to spoil all that hard work. Treat yourself with this Sugar Free Ginger Maple Syrup to flavour your coffee, drizzle over pancakes or flavour cream for desserts.
Longing for the taste of gingerbread coffee? This homemade syrup allows you to control how strong and how sweet your favourable drink is.
BIG TIP: use fresh ginger and whole spices. Ground spices taste great, but will make the resulting syrup cloudy. It has such a lovely golden colour that it is a shame to mar it.
I also leave all the spices and ginger in the maple syrup. This intensifies the flavour over time. Just be careful to avoid the spices when you use the syrup. By having the spices whole, this is easy to do. If you are concerned, just strain the syrup before placing into serving container.
GINGER MAPLE SYRUP
250 ml sugar free maple syrup
1 cinnamon stick
3-4 whole cloves
2-3 whole peppercorns
3 cardamom seeds
10-15 g fresh ginger-finely cut
Place all ingredient into a saucepan and heat over a medium heat to a simmer.
Simmer for 5 minutes, cover and take off the heat.
Allow to cool.
Pour into a sterilised container with all the spices and ginger, and refrigerate.
Will keep in the refrigerator 2-3 weeks.
Strain before serving if you desire.
GINGER MAPLE CREAM
1/2 cup thickened cream/heavy cream
1 tbsp Ginger Maple Syrup
Place into a bowel and whip until thickened.
serve with fruit, cake or use to top a gingerbread coffee.
