Ingredients

For 1 person

  • 45 gIrish whiskey (that’s 3 tablespoons/I used Jameson)
  • 1–2 tspmaple syrup, to taste
  • 170 ghot freshly brewed coffee (that’s ¾ cup/use your favorite roast)
  • —Whipped cream, for topping

Steps

  1. 1

    Pour the whiskey and 1 teaspoon maple syrup into a heat-safe mug. Pour in a splash of the coffee and stir with a spoon until the maple syrup dissolves into the coffee.

  2. 2

    Pour in the rest of the coffee. Taste, and stir in additional maple syrup if you would like a sweeter drink.

  3. 3

    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!
