Adjust Servings

1.5 oz Irish Whiskey

3 oz Freshly Brewed Medium-Dark Roast Coffee

1 tsp Brown Sugar (or to taste)

2 oz Heavy Cream, lightly whipped

Nutrition

Follow The Directions

01

Step

Warm a stemmed glass or heat-proof mug with hot water, then discard the water. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Add the brown sugar to the glass, followed by the Irish whiskey. (1 minute)

03

Step

Pour in the hot coffee and stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Gently float the lightly whipped cream on top of the coffee by pouring it slowly over the back of a spoon. The cream should form a distinct layer. (3 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider using demerara sugar instead of brown sugar.
If you prefer a sweeter drink, adjust the amount of brown sugar to your liking.
Ensure the coffee is hot, but not scalding, to avoid curdling the cream.
For a more stable whipped cream topping, add a teaspoon of powdered sugar while whipping.
Experiment with different types of Irish whiskey to find your perfect flavor profile. A blend with notes of vanilla and spice works particularly well.
