Irish Coffee
Cocktail Recipe
Description
A warm and comforting cocktail made with coffee, Irish whiskey, sugar, and topped with cream, perfect for cold evenings.
History
Irish Coffee originated in the 1940s when a group of travelers were served a warming drink at an Irish airport after being turned back from their trip due to bad weather. It quickly became popular for its rich flavors and delightful warmth.
