Here's a "curious" combination of flavor profiles sure to please the coffee-lovers and Amaro aficionados partaking in Dry January (or beyond). This drink features two expressions of Curious Elixirs' non-alcoholic beverages, a black-and-blue-amaro-inspired #8 and the Coconut Painkiller-inspired #6, both of which are limited-edition, so it's advisable to order the right away.
