The Original Irish Coffee

  • Cream - Rich as an Irish Brogue
  • Coffee- Strong as Friendly Hand
  • Sugar - Sweet as the tongue of a Rouge
  • Irish Whiskey - smooth as the Wit of the Land

    In a warm stemmed whiskey goblet, pour one jigger of Irish whiskey. Add one spoon of brown sugar and fill with strong black coffee within one inch of brim. Stir to dissolve the sugar and top off with whipped cream, slightly aerated by pouring it over the back of a spoon. Do not stir after adding the cream as the true flavor is obtained by drinking the hot coffee and Irish whiskey through the cream.
