"Bar Month" at OnMilwaukee.com is back for another round! The whole month of February, we're serving up intoxicatingly fun bars and club articles -- including guides, unique features, drink recipes and more. Grab a designated driver and dive in!

This is more than a $7 drink -- it's a $7 drinking experience. Now, before you gawk at the thought of paying that much for a coffee concoction, let me clarify by saying that the coffee component of the Booze-a-latte is minimal at best.

Now, I don't have an exact recipe for this drink, but here is a rundown of the ingredients.

Comet's finest start with a pint glass, add a touch of soy creamer, a wee bit of iced coffee, and continue to fill the rest of the space up with chocolate-flavored vodka, ginger brandy and Kahlua, which is a coffee-flavored liqueur.

If you're making this at home, you can, of course, play with the ingredients and add what you're comfortable with. Comet uses soy creamer to make it vegan, but if the dairy stuff is more your deal, go for it.

If you don't trust yourself to make it, or don't feel like buying all those components, just go to Comet; they'll be happy to prepare one for you. And one is plenty for a little pick me up, as the Booze-a-latte definitely lives up to its name.

OnMilwaukee.com staff writer Julie Lawrence grew up in Wauwatosa and has lived her whole life in the Milwaukee area.

As any “word nerd” can attest, you never know when inspiration will strike, so from a very early age Julie has rarely been seen sans pen and little notebook. At the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee it seemed only natural that she major in journalism. When OnMilwaukee.com offered her an avenue to combine her writing and the city she knows and loves in late 2004, she knew it was meant to be. Around the office, she answers to a plethora of nicknames, including “Lar,” (short for “Larry,” which is short for “Lawrence”) as well as the mysteriously-sourced “Bill Murray.”
