Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare glass

    Pre-warm a stemmed Irish coffee glass by filling it with hot water for 1 minute, then discard the water and dry the glass.

  2. 2

    Pour hot coffee (240 ml) into the warmed glass and stir in 2 teaspoons sugar until fully dissolved.

  3. 3

    Stir in 45 ml of Irish whiskey until well mixed with the coffee.

  4. 4

    Gently float 60 ml of lightly whipped cream on top by pouring over the back of a spoon so it rests above the coffee.

  5. 5

    Serve immediately. Optional: garnish with a light grating of cocoa powder or nutmeg if desired.
