Ingredients
- 3 sugar cubes (or teaspoons)
- 1 shot brandy (or another dry brandy)
- 4 oz coffee brewed, strong
- 2 Tbsp Whipped Cream sweetened with a little vanilla sugar

Instructions
- Place the sugar cubes into the mug. Heat the brandy in the microwave for about 30 seconds then pour onto the sugar cubes. Using a long match, carefully light the brandy in the mug.
- Stir with the long spoon until the sugar has completely dissolved. (If the flame doesn't extinguish after a minute, place a plate over the top of the cup.)
- Pour the coffee into the cup with the sugar and brandy.
- Finally, top with the slightly sweetened whipped cream and chocolate shavings. You have now made an authentic Rüdesheimer coffee!
