Foodie Thoughts for 25 January - National Irish Coffee Day
Foodie fans today is National Irish Coffee Day...
1 1/2 oz Irish whiskey
1 tsp brown sugar
6 oz hot coffee
heavy cream
1 tsp brown sugar
6 oz hot coffee
heavy cream
Combine whiskey, sugar and coffee in a mug and stir to dissolve. Float cold cream gently on top. Do not mix.
Irish coffee (Irish: Caife Gaelach) is a cocktail consisting of hot coffee, Irish whiskey, and sugar, stirred, then with thick cream floated on top. The coffee is drunk through the cream. The original recipe explicitly uses cream that has not been whipped, although whipped cream is often used. Irish coffee may be considered a variation on the hot toddy.
