Can you think of a better fall combination than coffee liqueur, Irish cream and orange liqueur?  Well, okay maybe one...  But we will get to that in a minute.  The B52 is a classic cocktail that has been around since the late 1970's.  No way to tell if it was named for the bomber or the band, but either way their are a ton of variations and different ways to whip up one of these that you are going to love.

We are a house divided.  I love the B-51, which switches out the Grand Marnier for Frangelico.  I mean really, orange or hazelnut?  I am going with the hazelnut every time.  Which one would you choose?

• To make a B-51, build a B-52 with Frangelico hazelnut liqueur rather than Grand Marnier
• To make a B-52 with Bombay Doors, build a B-52 with Bombay gin
• To make a B-52 in the Desert, build a B-52 with tequila rather than Bailey's Irish cream
• To make a B-52 with a Full Payload, build a B-52 with a 4th layer of Frangelico and a 5th layer of Bacardi 151 rum lit on fire.
• To make a B-53, build a B-52 with Sambuca rather than Irish cream
• To make a B-54, build a B-52 with Amaretto almond liqueur in place of Grand Marnier
• To make a B-55, build a B-52 with absinthe rather than Grand Marnier
• To make a B-57, build a B-52 with peppermint schnapps rather than Irish cream
