How to Make the Perfect Irish Coffee — A Warm Irish Classic
There’s nothing quite like an Irish coffee — smooth, rich coffee blended with the warmth of Irish whiskey, topped off with a silky layer of cream. Whether you're winding down after dinner or raising a glass with friends, this iconic Irish drink never goes out of style.
At DiscountCoffee.ie, we know that the key to the perfect Irish coffee starts with the right beans, and we highly recommend using Wanted Coffee Beans for that rich, full-bodied flavour Irish coffee deserves.
☘️ What You’ll Need:
-
Freshly brewed coffee — smooth and strong. We suggest Wanted Coffee Beans for the ideal base.
-
1 shot of Irish whiskey — classics like Jameson or Bushmills work beautifully.
-
1-2 teaspoons of brown sugar — to sweeten and balance the whiskey's warmth.
-
Fresh cream — lightly whipped to create the perfect floating layer.
-
A heatproof Irish coffee glass.
🍀 Step-by-Step: How to Make Irish Coffee
1️⃣ Warm Your Glass
Pour hot water into your Irish coffee glass and let it sit for a minute to warm up. Discard the water before starting the recipe — this helps keep your drink hot.
2️⃣ Brew the Coffee
Using freshly ground Wanted Coffee Beans, brew a strong, aromatic coffee. The rich depth of Wanted's blends creates a smooth yet bold base, perfect for balancing with whiskey and cream.
3️⃣ Add Whiskey and Sugar
Pour one shot of your favourite Irish whiskey into the warmed glass, followed by the brown sugar. Stir until the sugar fully dissolves into the whiskey.
4️⃣ Add the Coffee
Gently pour your freshly brewed coffee into the glass, leaving enough space at the top for the cream layer.
5️⃣ Top with Cream
Carefully pour lightly whipped fresh cream over the back of a spoon so it floats perfectly on top. This creamy crown is the signature of a proper Irish coffee.
☕ Why Wanted Coffee Beans Are a Perfect Fit
