Ingredients

  • 1 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 4 ounces freshly brewed hot coffee
  • 1 ounce Irish whiskey

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, bring the brown sugar and water to a boil over medium-high heat to make the brown sugar syrup. Cook until the brown sugar dissolves, then allow it to cool to room temperature.
  2. Whisk the heavy cream with 1/4 cup of the cooled brown sugar syrup using a stand mixer or hand-held whisk, until it reaches the ribbon stage (thickened but still pourable).
  3. In an Irish coffee glass or mug, combine the hot coffee, Irish whiskey, and 1/2 ounce of the brown sugar syrup (adjust to taste).
  4. Top with a generous amount of the whipped cream and serve.
