IRISH COFFEE 1 double measure Irish whiskey 1 Tbsp. double cream 1 c. strong, hot, black coffee 1 heaped tsp. sugar Although of recent origin, this is all set to become a tradition. First of all warm a stemmed whiskey glass. Put in the sugar and enough hot coffee to dissolve the sugar. Stir well. Add the Irish whiskey to fill within an inch of the brim. Hold a teaspoon curved side up across the glass and pour the cold cream slowly over the spoon. Do not stir the cream into the coffee. It should float on top and the hot whiskey-laced coffee is drunk through the cold cream.
