Irish Coffee
Price range: $16.00 through $55.00
“Cream as rich as an Irish brogue, coffee as strong as a friendly hand, sugar as sweet as the tongue of a rogue, and whiskey as smooth as the wit of the land” is how the inventor of Irish Coffee described it back in the 1940s. It’s hard to improve on this comforting combination of four ingredients, but for me chocolate makes just about everything better.
My version of Irish Coffee features a creamy milk chocolate ganache flavored with Writers’ Tears Copper Pot Irish Whiskey and coffee brewed from home-roasted beans. The milk chocolate cup is topped with a not-too-sweet organic white chocolate adorned with dark chocolate flakes. (AVAILABLE BY MARCH 14)
Writers’ Tears was recommended to me when I worked on a children’s media project with a creative team in Ireland. Aged in bourbon casks, it’s described by the maker as a “unique marriage of Single Pot Still and Single Malt Irish Whiskey” with notes of apple, vanilla, and honey.
The name celebrates the golden era of Irish whiskey and renowned Irish writers—George Bernard Shaw, Oscar Wilde, James Joyce, W.B. Yeats, among others—who apparently enjoyed this combination so much that “when they cried, their tears were of whiskey.”
