    • Reviews

  • “This was very good!I am a fan of Irish coffee and this was the first time I tried making one at home rather than ordering one at a restaurant.We prefer ours not terribly sweet, so we went easier on the sugar.We also tried a cup with a little less whiskey, which was very good too.”

  • “This was wonderful, I loved it. just perfect for this cold wintery weather. Perfect ratio of whiskey sugar and coffee.I garnished with vanilla whipped cream for a decadent treat.Thank you for sharing this tasty coffee.”

  • “Best winter night drink .Thanks.”
