Coffee and soju are a perfect match, and these recipes will show you why

Coffee is the ultimate pick-me-up while alcohol is the source of liquid confidence. Combine them together and you’ve got a flavorful explosion that sends your mind into overdrive. 

If you think about certain drinks that go well with soju, sweetened milk and beer are the first that come to mind. But did you know that Jinro soju and coffee are a perfect match as well? 

Iggy Tan of Everyday Coffee Roasters believes that the bitter aftertaste of caffeine and the refreshing flavor of Jinro soju is the ultimate combo to keep your energy high.

“Soju has been around for some time. As Filipinos are starting on their “brewdol” journey, many are now beginning to acquaint their taste buds with coffee-inspired beverages,” Tan said. “Putting a little Jinro soju adds a subtle hint of alcohol and that cuddle warmth that is perfect in this rainy weather, whether at home or your nightly samgyupsal with friends.”
