Trish Archer's Gaelic Coffee
Adapted from Irish Traditional Cooking by Darina Allen
~from Savoring Time in the Kitchen
Serves 1
1 measure of Irish whiskey
2 teaspoons soft brown sugar
Strong black coffee
Softly whipped cream
Warm a medium sized wine glass with hot water. Pour out the water and put the sugar and whiskey into the glass. Add the coffee and stir well. Pour the softly whipped cream out of a pitcher over the back of a spoon on to the top of the coffee. The cream should float on top of the coffee so don't attempt to stir.
