Method
Drink
Brew & sweeten
Brew about 4 oz of hot coffee (preferably medium roast) and pour it into a warmed 6–8 oz heatproof glass or mug. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar until fully dissolved.
Add Bailey's
Measure and pour 1 oz Bailey's Irish Cream into the sweetened hot coffee. Stir gently for 10–15 seconds so the liqueur integrates and the drink becomes smooth and creamy.
Top with cream
Lightly whip about a teaspoon of heavy cream until it coats the back of a spoon but is still pourable. Carefully float the cream on top of the coffee by pouring it over the back of a spoon to create a thin layered top.
Garnish & serve
Dust the cream with a small pinch of cocoa powder or grate a little chocolate on top. Serve immediately with a teaspoon.
