Ingredients:
1 C hot coffee
1 1/2 oz. Irish Mist liqueur
whipped
cream
for garnish
OR
Modern Version
1 C hot coffee
1 oz. Irish Whiskey
3 sugar cubes
whipped
cream
for garnish
Method:
In
order to make this recipe properly the whiskey
has to be heated to a high temperature. Pour the
coffee in a cup with the desired number of sugar
cubes. Then use a spoon turned upside down and
pour the HOT whiskey over it so it flows down
gently. Top it all with the whipped cream. See
photos below for the process.
When served, true Irish Coffee always has three
distinct layers. When served, you first use a
straw and sip (a very small amount as it is HOT)
a little of the Whiskey. Then stir all the
ingredients together. |
