Any Fans of Irish Coffee on here?

[Eric300]

Friday afternoon, in the middle of Michigan winter, not much else to do, so what the heck.....

Maybe not a true 'Irish Coffee', but you get the idea.

4 shots of Bourbon, 2 shots Kahlua, 2 shots Bailey's Irish Cream, 1 cup of coffee, and for that 'foo-foo' effect, topped off with whipped cream.

Here's mud in yer eye....

“But officer, it’s just a cup of coffee!!! . . . And I have no idea how that snowmobile got in the top of that tree.”

The breakfast of champions! (Personally, that would have me praying to the sewer gods.)
But, have at it!!

Looks tasty! Kahlua has a Vanilla that's pretty good. We have found we like Carolan's Irish Cream better than Bailey's. Still, I would not turn down your version!

Mom's recipe.

Your Mom knows her Irish Coffee. My recipe is very similar, but I use Jameson's Black Barrel and go a bit heavier on the frothy stuff.

Alcohol doesn't usually agree with my ulcers so don't imbibe much at all, but the other day we ran out of milk for the coffee and my MIL offered up her Baily's in substitute, and it went down just fine.

I used to keep a bottle of Baileys in my locker at work. If I ran out at work, I'd make coffee at home and mix some in a "to go" cup and drive to work like that.

Eh, um. But of course, I wouldn't take my first sips till I got to work. [emoji16]

Eric,
That would definitely put me under the table and I wouldn't care a bit about what the weather was doing.

(Although I probably would drown.... We're having King Tides and incessant heavy rain with flooding.)

I've been known to dilute my bourbon with a shot or two of coffee.

Y'all notice we haven't heard back from Eric? Perhaps he has decide to take a nap?

Every holiday season make a batch or two of home made +P irish cream. Give some away as gifts, rest for coffee. Yup it has real eggs and cream in it. Will occasionally attempt irish coffee by adding a little extra whiskey and whipped cream to the mix. We all deserve what little pleasure we can get in this world.

I like Mom's recipe! Would like one right now.

All that stuff is ok as well as the normal Chrismas "Toddies" that I enjoy, now and then.

However, for a little enjoyment after a meal at night, I prefer a good hot cup of "Joe"
with a large shot of Anisette poured in on on the side, depending on how the house presents it.

Lots of times it is after one or two, Pecan Punches. (big smile )

Herself and I were driving home one winter night and we were both cold. It was 11pm and we stopped at a local Outback and asked for two Irish coffees. The barmaid asked me several times to repeat my order! I finally told her how to make it. She misunderstood my instructions and brought us two mugs of steaming Irish whiskey! I ordered two more!

To piggyback off StrawHat's post; in my teens dad kept a bottle of Rock & Rye just for cold and flu season. He would warm up a jigger and put it in one of those old, heavy coffee mugs and tell me to sip it.

I coughed a lot growing up.

Big fan. The early pandemic made me realize that I had to keep it a special occasions treat, but Irish coffee really made a zoom meeting fly by.

I like a little coffee with my booze!! YUM!

I'm still kickin'. Saturday morning, 08 Jan 2022, 1140 hrs. A little crispy around the edges after a previous night of debauchery.

I realize I've turned into a comparative lightweight but I'd be pretty worthless'er after that.

On a somewhat related note. I bought a bottle of Bib and Tucker bourbon awhile back and had forgotten about it. I had a shot, neat, last night. While not the smokiest or sweetest bourbon it sure is smooth @ 92 proof. It would probably be a good starter bourbon for those Crown drinkers who think they're drinking whiskey.
