I’m a sucker for National Days. I love them and celebrate every one of them when given the chance. And I would never pass up one that gave me an excuse to drink more coffee! So in honor of National Irish Coffee Day, I present to you The Best Irish Coffee Recipe!
Here’s what you will need:
- Hot Coffee (I used a Nespresso capsules)
- Irish Whiskey
- Brown Sugar
- Fresh Cream
Step 1: Pour 1.5 ounces of Irish Whiskey into the bottom of a warm coffee mug.
Step 2: Pour the coffee over the whiskey. I used my Nespresso and just brewed it directly over the whiskey. Drip coffee or a French Press would also work.

Step 3: Gently stir 1 teaspoon of brown sugar into the coffee.
Step4: Top with fresh heavy cream of half and half.

This can also be made with Bailey’s or Kahlua!
Cheers!
