My favorite Irish Coffee is made with freshly brewed coffee, high-quality Irish whiskey, and topped with homemade whipped cream, It is worth the effort! My twist is to use real maple syrup instead of sugar and a salted caramel CBD truffle.
Ingredients
1 ½ ounces Irish whiskey (3 tablespoons/I prefer Jameson)
1 to 2 teaspoons maple syrup, to taste. You could use brown sugar instead but the maple syrup tastes better and stirs in easier
6 ounces hot freshly brewed coffee (that’s ¾ cup/use your favorite roast)
1 The Heart of Hemp Salted Caramel 25mg CBD Truffle
Freshly made whipped cream as a topping
Instructions
Pour the whiskey and 1 teaspoon maple syrup into a warm mug. Pour in a splash of the coffee and stir with a spoon until the maple syrup dissolves into the coffee.
Drop the salted caramel truffle into the mug.
Pour in the rest of the coffee. Taste, and stir in additional maple syrup if you would like it a little sweeter. Leave 1/2 inch on top for whipped cream.
Top with whipped cream. If your whipped cream is lightly whipped (soft peaks), you may need to pour it slowly over a spoon so it floats on top. Serve while the drink is still warm!
Drink the Irish coffee through the puffs of whipped cream for most fun.
Enjoy and Happy St. Paddy’s Day!
