Irish Coffee

 

Irish Coffee done the proper old-fashioned way: real heavy cream floated on top of black coffee with sugar and Irish whiskey, no Bailey’s, no whipped cream topping. Restaurants that do it any other way are just lazy.

• 1 tsp sugar
• 4 oz hot coffee
• 1 1/2 Irish whiskey
• 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream

1. Put sugar in a goblet and pour in hot coffee. Stir to dissolve.
2. Add Irish whiskey.
3. Whip heavy whipping cream until double in volume. Gently pour the whipped cream over an overturned spoon to float on top of the coffee.
