Double Orange Kahlúa and Coffee

These are the amounts for 1 drink but you should have enough whipped cream and simple syrup for at least 2 or 3 more. If you have made the Candied Orange Peel you can use the leftover orange syrup for this drink and garnish the drink with some small strips of the peel.
