Ingredients

⅓ cup Heavy cream

2 tablespoons Light brown sugar

¼ cup Irish whiskey

2 cups Hot freshly brewed coffee

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and light brown sugar until soft peaks form, ensuring the mixture is light and fluffy.

  2. Divide the Irish whiskey evenly between two mugs, pouring about 2 tablespoons into each.

  3. Pour the hot brewed coffee over the whiskey in each mug, filling nearly to the top and stirring gently to combine.

  4. Spoon the whipped cream mixture generously over each mug, allowing it to float on top of the hot coffee. Serve immediately while hot.
