Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 1/2 ounces Irish whiskey
  • 2 teaspoons brown sugar
  • 6 ounces hot coffee
  • 2 tablespoons whipped cream
  • Chocolate shavings for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the cream until it has medium peaks- light and fluffy.
  2. Pour boiling water into a mug and let it sit for about 3 minutes to warm up the mug, then discard.
  3. Add the whiskey and brown sugar to the mug, then pour the hot coffee on top. Stir to dissolve the sugar.
  4. Using an upside-down spoon, gently pour the whipped cream over the back of the spoon to float it on top of the coffee. Do not stir. This cocktail is meant to be sipped through the cream.
