Happy St. Patrick's Day! Irish Coffee Recipe


Shadowbird shows off how to make Irish coffee exactly like they make it in Ireland. Well, almost exactly like it, anyway.

Please enjoy responsibly, and only if you are of legal age, of course.

Ingredients:
1 cup hot, fresh coffee
1 Tablespoon demerera sugar
~1.5 ounces Irish whiskey
Heavy cream

1. Lightly whip the cream until it's slightly thickened.
2. In a glass (preferably a glass warmed with hot water), pour in the Demerera sugar and pour the coffee over it. Stir until combined. Blend in the whiskey.
3. Dollop the cream over the top of the coffee, so it makes a nice even crown.
4. Enjoy!
