Eating Gilmore
The Coffee Collection
It's not Gilmore Girls without coffee! "I can't stop drinking the coffee. I stop drinking the coffee, I stop doing the standing, walking, and words putting into sentence doing." Here is a collection of my favorite recipes that jazz up your coffee or use coffee as an ingredient.

Mocha Chocolate Caramel Swirl-a-Chino
The drink that made Lorelai say if it was possible to make love to a hot beverage, this would be the one. From 5.17 Pulp Friction.

Chocolate Espresso Tassel Hat Cake
Sookie makes Lorelai a graduation cake in the shape of a tassel hat. She fills the cake with dark chocolate espresso beans in 2.21 Lorelai's Graduation Day.

Coffee Biscotti
When the girls come back from Europe in 4.01 Ballrooms and Biscotti, the celebrate biscotti moments, so of course, I had to put a Gilmore twist on the dessert and make coffee biscotti.

Homemade Coffee Ice Cream in Cones
Jess insists that ice cream tastes better in "coooones" in 2.19 Teach Me Tonight but I'll do him one better with homemade cones! I also made homemade coffee ice cream (which happens to be my favorite flavor).

Candy Cane Coffee
This festive coffee definitely has more *peppermint* taste than putting a glob of Vick's vape-o-rub on your chest. Celebrate with this coffee from 7.11 Santa's Secret Stuff.

Coffee White Russians
In 7.02 That's What You Get Folks, For Makin' Whoopee, Liz makes TJ and Luke White Russians. I had to put a Gilmore spin on the cocktail by adding coffee.

Coffee Cannolis
After Luke and Lorelai get engaged in 6.01 The New and Improved Lorelai, Miss Patty asked if he hid the ring in a dessert like a cannoli. I made coffee versions of this Italian dessert.

Salted Caramel Bourbon Coffee Cocktail
When I couldn't find anything to make in 3.12 Lorelai Out of Water, I decided to be inspired by Lorelai and Alex's coffee-tasting date. This cocktail is what I imagine they drank if they went to a bar afterward.
