Irish Coffee
Irish Coffee is a historic and tasty holiday coffee cocktail. This internationally acclaimed after-dinner drink is a boozy and warming surprise, sure to be a hit among your adult guests.
Ingredients:
1 Cup of Strong-Brewed Coffee
1 Tbsp of Brown Sugar
1 ½ oz of Irish Whiskey
Whipped Cream or ¼ Heavy Cream

Pour strong-brewed hot coffee into a (warm) mug until the mug is almost ¾ full. Blend in brown sugar until completely dissolved. Add in Irish Whiskey and mix until well blended.
