Irish Coffee Recipe
Cocktails are usually used for refreshment. Fruit often meets spirits for a mental trip to the beach and sea. However, cocktails can also warm the soul just as well. To do this, use our Irish coffee recipe and then mix coffee with whiskey and whipped cream.
Equipment
- Coffee Maker
Ingredients
- 50 ml Whipped Cream
- 2 tsp Sugar
- 4 cl Whiskey
- 150 ml Coffee
- 1/4 Pinch of Nutmeg, Freshly Grated
Instructions
- Whip the cream with a hand mixer until stiff.
- Melt the sugar in a coated pan to a viscous mass and pour into Irish Coffee glass. Pour in the whiskey first, then hot freshly brewed coffee, stir.
- Put the cream topping over an upturned teaspoon and dust with freshly grated nutmeg.
Notes
Sheridan heated and caramelized everything with special bar utensils. For our Irish coffee recipe, on the other hand, the pan is sufficient. There you caramelize the sugar. In addition to the traditional Irish coffee ingredients, you can of course also vary. For our recipe, for example, grate a little nutmeg over the whipped cream to top it off. Also, be sure to use Irish not Scotch whiskey or even American bourbon. The former tastes a little milder than Scottish variants and therefore fits perfectly into the special Irish whiskey glass.
