Italian coffee sambuca is delicious and incredibly easy to make. All you have to do is pour an ounce or two of the anise-flavored Italian liqueur sambuca into a glass float three coffee beans on top (never an even number as that’s considered bad luck) and sip it slowly as an aperitif or digestif.

How to Make Red Eye Coffee Sambuca | Keurig Coffee Recipes
The strong aniseed flavour of sambuca pairs beautifully with the earthy notes of the coffee and it is a delicious drink to sip slowly after a hearty meal on its own or with a dessert like tiramisu. Although it is very popular in southern Italy the eastern region of Le Marche is where you will find this drink most often.
Sambuca is a traditional Italian liqueur flavored primarily with anise or anise seed along with other herbs and spices. Sambuca comes in three colors: white (clear) red and black (more of a deep purple or blue color).
Sambuca can be enjoyed neat as in this recipe at room temperature or slightly chilled. It is also commonly used in various cocktails and shooters such as the B-53. If you come across a cocktail recipe that simply calls for “anise liqueur” sambuca is one of your best options to use.
