A Vieux Carre cocktail recipe is the perfect way to warm up on a chilly winter day. This drink combines two of my favorite things: whiskey and coffee liqueur. I love the rich, robust flavor that this cocktail provides, not to mention how it warms you right up! If you're looking for a new drink for your next party or even just something different to enjoy at home, give this recipe a try!
