Ingredients
- 5 oz. brewed coffee
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar to taste
- 1 ½ oz. Irish whiskey
- sweetened whipped cream for topping
- Chocolate shavings or chips for topping
- Sprinkles for topping
Instructions
- Brew your coffee as you normally would.
- Measure sugar into your Irish coffee glass/mug.
- Pour the coffee on top of the sugar, and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Taste and add additional sugar, if necessary.
- Pour in the Irish whiskey, and stir.
- Top with the sweetened whipped cream.
- Add chocolate shavings, chocolate chips or sprinkles for garnish, and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- Use fresh coffee. If you brewed some this morning and it’s gotten cold in the pot, brew a fresh pot. This makes a difference.
- Decaf or caffeinated coffee is OK in this recipe! While I love my daily coffee, I can’t drink anything but decaf after noon.
- Sweeten your coffee to taste. If this drink is too bitter with just 1 teaspoon of sugar, add another to make it work for your tastebuds!
- Make your own whipped cream. It doesn’t take much time, and the flavor and texture are so much better than the kind you’d get from a tub or a bottle. (If you're vegan or can't have dairy products, make the whipped cream with chilled canned coconut cream.)
- Make a variation. You could add a shot of Irish Cream to make this coffee cocktail extra creamy. (You could also swap the Irish whiskey for the Irish cream and turn it into Baileys Coffee. Serve it on ice for an ICED Irish Coffee!
