Irish Whiskey Cream Coffee

On a recent (January 8-12, 2024) trip to New Orleans, we stopped by Morning Call Coffee Stand at 5101 Canal Blvd after our evening ghost/cemetery tour for some hot libations. Morning Call is known for its beignets - in fact, more than one of our tour guides highly recommended this place over Cafe du Monde. On this particular cold winter's night in NOLA, Morning Call's Irish cream coffee with Jameson's Irish Whiskey was delicious and more than hit the spot for us before we had to venture out on our trek back to the hotel. Here's my rendition, with strong coffee, Bailey's Irish Cream, Jameson's Irish Whiskey, whipped cream, and a sprinkling of cocoa powder. To ensure that the coffee remains piping hot, I combine the hot coffee and Irish Cream together in a saucepan and bring the mixture up to a simmer. May the bon temps rouler!


INGREDIENTS (1 serving):
8 oz. strong coffee
3 oz. Bailey's Irish Cream Liqueur
1/2 to 1 oz. Jameson's Irish Whiskey (depending on how boozy you like it)
Whipped cream topping
Cocoa powder

1. Brew coffee and pour into a saucepan. Add the Irish Cream Liqueur and bring to a simmer. Immediately remove from the heat and pour into a coffee cup. 

2. Stir in the whiskey.

3. Swirl the whipped cream topping over the coffee mixture.

4. Sprinkle a little cocoa powder over the whipped cream.
