Spike Your Coffee with an Orange Espresso Margarita

Coffee. It’s become one of the most popular flavors of things in the US, if not the entire world. Where we once just consumed coffee as a morning beverage to get us fired up, coffee has become an all day, everyday thing.

Change up your regular after dinner coffee with this amazing Orange Espresso Margarita.  It’s got a touch of richness, and little bit of sweetness.  Garnish with a few chocolate covered espresso beans or serve with a small truffle for a real treat.
