How to make an Irish Coffee
This old classic has been a favourite for many years, it’s wonderful mix of rijo42 Americano gourmet coffee and Irish whiskey is the perfect combination. Great to offer in your hotel, restaurant or bar or after a dinner party with friends. You can produce perfect Americano coffee from any of the commercial coffee machines, traditional espresso machines or home coffee machines in the rijo42 range.
Ingredients
1 cup rijo42 Americano coffee
25ml of Irish whiskey
2 teaspoons of Demerara sugar
25ml fresh pouring cream
Method
- Take a latte glass from yourrijo42 cup warmer. If you don’t have a cup warmer then place a spoon into the glass and fill with boiling water, the spoon will absorb the heat from the water so the glass won’t crack. NEVER use a cold glass as adding hot liquid may cause it to crack.
- Pour the shot of Irish Whiskey into the bottom of the latte glass
- Pour in the rijo42 Americano coffee into the glass leaving a 15mm gap at the top
- Add the two teaspoons of Demerara sugar and stir until thoroughly dissolved, it is important the sugar dissolves completely as this is what ensures the cream floats
- Place a teaspoon face up into the coffee so that the curved part of the teaspoon is just touching the surface
- Pour the cream from a small jug onto the spoon, the cream will flow off the sides of the spoon and float on top of the coffee
- Enjoy
