My partner and I accidentally discovered "the trifecta" of alcohol, weed, and caffeine. But it's a careful balance, you don't want a lot of any one thing.
The idea is just enough alcohol to loosen up but not enough to get drunk, a bit of weed to ground you but not so much that it's overwhelming, and caffeine to offset the sleepiness and brain fog. For us it means two espresso cocktails and half a small joint.
Obviously not something you want to do often, but ngl it's nice
I'm a big fan of "coffee and liquor of choice".
Espresso cocktails are better made with, well, espresso imo. Licor 43 is my absolute favorite spirit to pair with coffee, it's a sweet vanilla caramel flavored liquor. I like to mix it 50/50 with whiskey to increase the alcohol content without sacrificing flavor. Irish cream is also a well known favorite.
