It’s been a while since I last made a post, so I’m going to start making more and more these coming days to get all the things down!
On Saturday the 8th, I went to the Botero Museum with Daniel and then to 7th street and the governing district at Plaza Bolivar.
This is what it looked like:
We also went into one of the historic cathedrals at the square:
Afterwards, we stopped by a barista school that didn’t permit photography. I managed to get a couple photos of me and their prized Irish Coffee.
It’s made like this:
- Add about 1 shot of “canela” or unrefined cane syrup
- I plan on substituting cajeta for this
- Add about 1 shot of cheap whiskey
- Don’t show the customer this step or the one before it
- Add about 1/2 cup of strong black coffee
- Add about 1 shot of cream
- Pour it over a spoon so it doesn’t disturb the substrate
- Shake the cream with ice to chill and soften it first
I’ll get some more updates in soon, especially pictures from my trip to Cartagena with the graduate students!
