Irish Coffee

Ingredients

  • 3 cups heavy or whipping cream
  • 7 Tbsp. sugar, divided
  • 1 cup Irish whiskey
  • 6 cups brewed Red Diamond® Coffee
  • Grated nutmeg or ground cinnamon for, garnish

Directions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream and 3 Tbsp. sugar until very soft peaks form (consistency should be just pourable). Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve
  2. Heat 8 clear-glass mugs by pouring very hot water into them. Drain water; add 2 Tbsp. whiskey to each glass
  3. Stir remaining 4 Tbsp. sugar into coffee until dissolved. For each drink, fill glass with coffee to within 1 ¼ in from the top. Hold a large spoon upside down over the top of the mug; gradually pour whipped cream over the back of the spoon onto the coffee (cream should float on top, about 1-inch thick). Sprinkle with nutmeg or cinnamon, if desired
