Beverage Base

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Brew the Coffee

    Start by brewing a fresh cup of hot coffee using your preferred method. Aim for a strong coffee to complement the whiskey.

  2. 2

    Mix the Base

    In a heatproof glass or coffee mug, combine the freshly brewed hot coffee, Irish whiskey, and brown sugar. Stir well until the sugar is dissolved.

Topping

  1. 3

    Prepare the Cream

    In a separate bowl, gently whip the heavy cream until it thickens slightly but is still pourable. Do not over-whip.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Drink

    Carefully pour the whipped cream over the back of a spoon onto the coffee mixture to create a layered effect. This allows the cream to float on top.

  3. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish with a couple of coffee beans on top of the whipped cream for an elegant touch.
