Directions
- Warm a heatproof Irish coffee glass by filling it with hot water. Let stand for 1 minute, then discard the water.
- Add the brown sugar to the warmed glass and pour in the freshly brewed hot coffee. Stir until the sugar has completely dissolved.
- Pour in the Irish whiskey and gently stir to combine.
- In a small bowl, lightly whip the heavy cream until slightly thickened but still pourable. Avoid whipping it into stiff peaks.
- Hold a spoon upside down just above the coffee and slowly pour the cream over the back of the spoon, allowing it to float gently on top.
- Garnish with a sprinkle of chocolate shavings or freshly grated nutmeg, if desired.
- Serve immediately without stirring. Enjoy the warm, whiskey-infused coffee through the cool layer of cream.
