Irish coffee is a warm and comforting drink that combines the flavours of coffee, whiskey, and cream. Easy to make, this is a classic and the most popular coffee drink. Here is an easy recipe for making Irish coffee:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of freshly brewed hot coffee
- 2 ounces of Irish whiskey
- 1 oz Kahlua coffee liqueur or Bailey’s Irish cream
- 1 oz whipped cream
- 1 pinch grated nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar (optional)
Directions:
- Pour Irish whiskey into the mug with hot coffee, add sugar (optional) and stir until the sugar is dissolved
- Pour coffee liqueur (Kahlua or Baileys)
- Gently spoon the whipped cream on top and garnish with grated nutmeg or chocolate.
To make it more authentic I like to use Irish whiskey like Jameson, Tullamore Dew or Bushmills. Enjoy.
