aka: The day 3 recipe was great, but this one's easier!
*stir in some molasses
*2 drops liquid smoke
*make it fancy with a few shakes of roasted garlic powder
starandrea made an amazing collage to celebrate this fantastic kitchen adventure! I LOVE IT!

Still not sure I can taste the liquid smoke. 7. "Coffee that's forged in battle and sweetened with the blood of my enemies."]
