Tamara Novacoviç on how to make that favorful and delicious adult coffee.
By Tamara Novacoviç
I generally drink 2 cups of coffee a day and kind of don’t function well without it. I’m always up for upgrading a cup of coffee with whipped cream, alcohol additions, honey, cinnamon and similar. Irish coffee is right up my alley: flavorful, warming, strong, delicious.
It generally consists of hot coffee, (brown) sugar, whiskey and thick cream.
- 1¼ cups (300) ml water
- 3 tsp instant coffee
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) whiskey
- 2 tsp (brown) sugar
- 0.4-0.6 cup (100-150 ml) whipping cream
- Lightly whip the cream (very soft peaks).
- Rinse 2 cups with hot water. Put 1 tsp and 1 tbsp whiskey into each cup and stir until sugar dissolves.
- Heat 300 ml water until it boils. Stir in coffee. Then pour it into each cup. Let stand for a few minutes and add very lightly whipped cream on top of each cup.

Nice and easy. I have some instant decaf in the cupboard – just the thing for a nightcap!
