Irish Coffee _ Irish Coffee practices _ Irish Coffee Story

Irish coffee is made from hot coffee and Irish Whiskey with a little sugar. Some people will add a layer of cream on it, and even some Irish coffee will light a fire on it to evaporate the alcohol of whisky. Some people say he is a cocktail. Others say he is coffee.

The first time the editor drank this wine, he ordered it in a small coffee shop in France. At that time, he only felt that the coffee was too delicious, with the mellow taste of whisky and the faint bitterness of coffee, and fell in love with the taste.

One day I met a barista in a coffee shop in Wuhan and shared with me the stories behind all kinds of individual coffee and coffee. Only Irish coffee moved me the most.

Barista's love affair at the terminal

There was a bartender at the Dublin airport. He worked in Bar at the airport. He met an American stewardess and fell in love at first sight. Every time he flew to Dublin as a stewardess, he would come to this bar. Every time he saw him and separated, the more he could not extricate himself from his love. He thought that the girl gave him the smell of Irish Whiskey, so it mixed the coffee for that girl.

So he prepared two wine lists, one with Irish coffee and the other with ordinary wine list. every time the stewardess came, she took out the wine list, but did not specifically recommend Irish coffee to him for a while. Until a year later, he finally ordered this cup of Irish coffee.

Would you like some tears in your coffee?

After the stewardess ordered Irish coffee, the bartender was very excited and burst into tears. the bartender dabbed tears on the edge of the Irish coffee cup. When the stewardess took a sip, she thought it was very delicious, so every time she flew to Dublin, she would order a cup, and what he liked most was the salty taste of tears, so later Irish coffee would be spread with salt on the edge of the cup. And countries with a strong coffee background will also ask you if you want some tears when you order Irish coffee.

Love is almost over as soon as it begins.

The girl liked Irish coffee very much, and because this cup of coffee began to get more and more familiar and intimate with the bartender, the stewardess chatted with the bartender about interesting things around the world, and the bartender also talked to him about a lot of coffee taste skills. but one day the stewardess decided to leave and stop working as a flight attendant. when she returned to San Francisco, the girl missed the cup of coffee so much that she opened a coffee shop in San Francisco.

Cocktail or coffee?

After the stewardess left, the bartender also began to sell this cup of Irish coffee, but his classification was in the cocktail area, while the girl in San Francisco was classified as a coffee area, and because of this beautiful misunderstanding, so Dubliners think he is a cocktail and San Francisco people think he is coffee.

Angel tears

In the eyes of the bartender, this girl is an angel. Even if he no longer comes to Dublin, the bartender will sometimes tell their stories to the drinkers. So later, many people called this cup of coffee angel's tears, because they met the angel's tears. Made this cup of coffee.

When the editor heard this story for the first time, I felt that the romance of coffee was true. Because of this story, I was infatuated with Irish coffee even closer. Maybe it was because I liked the mellow taste of Irish Whiskey, or maybe I liked the bitter and salty taste.

In other words, I fell in love with a romantic story.
