Irish coffee, also known as "lover's tears", can be said to be one of the most popular drinks in the world. It combines the richness of coffee and the mellowness of whisky, with a strong and warm flavor.

Let's learn how to make classic Irish coffee.

Manufacturing method

Step 1: heat the cup and leave the hot water for 30 seconds to make sure the whole cup is heated.

Common Irish coffee cups have feet, and in some places they are used with ears, such as London dock glass or tulip-shaped cups without ears.

Step 2: add a tablespoon of brown sugar: compared with white sugar, brown sugar is sweet enough to prevent cream from sinking. The molasses can bring out the taste of whisky and the color is very good.

Step 3: pour the coffee halfway and use a spoon to fully dissolve the brown sugar. Recommended flavors: medium and highly roasted coffee beans, but you can choose any flavor you like.

Step 4: add Irish Whiskey to 35ml-45ml, about 1.5oz, stir well. Note: it must be Irish Whiskey, recommend Bushmills / Jameson. Bailey liqueur (Baileys) is also available, which is very suitable for ladies.

Step 5: put on the whipped cream, be sure to be fast! Cream is very particular: if it is too thick, you can only drink cream, but not too thin, which will mix cream with coffee.

How to judge the quality of a cup of Irish coffee?

The most important thing is that the cream on the coffee does not sink and does not condense into the coffee. The trick is to add cream to the back of a warm spoon and it floats perfectly at the top.

Step 6: sprinkle with chocolate chips.

Now, you can enjoy the perfect Irish coffee! Remember, never use a spoon to stir the cream!

How to taste

The taste of Irish coffee is to taste slowly, feel the layering of the coffee, and place it for a period of time after it is made to avoid scalding.

Irish coffee is both a cocktail and coffee, which in itself is a beautiful mistake.
