Caramel Irish Coffee
Servings 1 serving
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 ounces Irish Whiskey I used Jameson
- 1 heaping tbsp caramel sauce plus more for top
- 6 ounces robust, hot coffee
- as needed lightly whipped heavy cream
Instructions
- Add hot water to an 8 ounce or larger coffee mug and allow to sit and warm mug while proceeding.
- Make coffee and whip 1/4-1/3 cup of heavy cream until soft peaks form or use a whipped cream dispenser.
- Pour the water out of the mug and add Irish whiskey and caramel, stir to combine. Pour in coffee and stir. Top with whipped cream and garnish with additional caramel sauce as desired.
Notes
-you can use homemade or store bought caramel sauce. My preference is homemade, here is a link to the one I used substituting the spiced rum with a tsp of vanilla. Spiced Rum Caramel
-the prep time for this recipe does not include the time it takes to make homemade caramel sauce.
