After dinner, after hours, or even after a long St. Patrick’s Day, Irish coffee is the one delicious pick-me-up you won’t find at your local coffeehouse.
Run hot water slowly over the glass or mug until it’s at room temperature, or warmer, and dry it.
Pouring hot coffee into a cold glass could cause the glass to crack.
Add brown sugar.
Pour in the whiskey and hot coffee, leaving a bit of room at the top for whipped cream.
For a cold version of this, chill sweetened coffee before adding the whiskey, or freeze some in an ice cube tray.
Stir well, until the sugar to dissolves completely.
Squirt or spoon a dollop of whipped cream so it simply sets on top of the drink.
Do not stir—not only does the hot drink taste better sipped through the cream, it stays warmer longer with the cream on top.
The drink Irish Coffee was devised in 1942 at an exclusive Irish airport to welcome American VIPs like Humphrey Bogart and Eleanor Roosevelt.
