This was yummy! My whipped cream melted deliciously into the coffee making it so creamy! So I stirred it in then added some more to the top and sprinkled with cinnamon! The chocolate, cinnamon and orange flavors really work well together and make a warm and delicious coffee treat! Thanks loof!

    I eased back on the liqueur quite a bit. I used enough to get the orange flavor and essence of it without the alcohol slam and loved every sip of this lovely creation. Coffee, chocolate and orange are pure classic. loof, thanks for posting this delight. Oh yes, almost forgot, I made it with espresso :D.

    Wow this is a great dessert coffee. The flavors of the orange and cinnamon really blend together well. It's a great mix for this fall season. Would definitely make again. Made and reviewed for I Recommend Tag - Thanks

    This was a very tasty coffee drink. The coffee was steaming hot and melted the whipped cream in no time at all, which melted down and blended perfectly with the coffee, chocolate, and orange liqueur. Very creamy but not as sweet as I was afraid it would be. Thanks for a great coffee drink, loof.

    Delicious after dinner coffee!! I went a little lighter orange liqueur as I wasn't sure how I would like it with coffee and also added some half-n-half cream. Thanks for sharing. Made for stars tag.

    I love winding down with a "spiked" coffee on a Friday afternoon and this made for a lovely treat. I also added a little milk and topped with whipped cream to serve, was delicious!

    Loved, loved, loved this coffee. Like Boomie, I didn't measure the amount of Grand Marnia that I used. It was heaven, rich, dark, strong coffee, subtle orange & cinnamon flavoring, all nestled in whipped cream. I'm in the pleasure zone...thanks so much for sharing Loof, I will be making this again and again.

    What a nice little after dinner treat! I loved the hint of chocolate and of course the yummy whipped cream, which slowly melted into the coffee. Next time I might lessen the amount of Grand Marnier and add a bit more chocolate. Great drink. Thanks!
