This Irish Coffee is how they make it at the Dead Rabbit Grocery and Grog (or at least how they say they make it...) and it's the absolute best darn Irish Coffee I've ever had. I know "who has the best Irish Coffee?!" isn't a question much labored over, you've probably never even bothered to worry about it. Rest assured, this is the best. It's also very simple, there's no weird ingredients, and you can make it in the glass. It is a delicious desert drink sure to please as a nightcap at any party you though, or just for yourself.
Irish Coffee
1 oz. or 30 ml. Bushmill's Irish Whiskey
~.5 oz. or 15 ml. Simple Syrup
3.5 oz. or 105 ml. Hot Coffee
Top with fresh whipped creme
garnish with grated nutmeg

You don’t use whipped cream, you donut! You use what you’d call “heavy cream” and float it on top over the back of a spoon. You went through that whole pretentious process and then use spray cream? Jesus!
Your binging with babishs alcoholic brother
@Afif Nasreddine I know it's extremely childish. But it's just absolutely impossible to look past the whole: your, you're mix-up
@Afif Nasreddine Sarcasm is hard to pull off on text. But I do feel like kind of an idiot when I read my comment again
Wow. Respect, appropriate communication using words on the internet? I applaud you two.
Prosperos Moon ...... gay
Check out cocktail chemistry too
You know, when you die, you spend time in Purgatory upside down in a barrel of all the whiskey you spilled in your life.
wont be much of an issue for long
So what you're saying is I need to spill more whiskey?
@@davidc4983 yes
Sounds like a deal
Sounds great
Irish Coffee: when you want to be drunk and sober at the same time
@Club Soda Best Irish I ever had was in Berkeley Ca at a pub called Brennan's. I'm not sure if it even still exists but my boyfriend insisted I try one and I don't even drink coffee!!!!!
Lol!!
Or when you want to have stupid drunk ideas and enough caffeine in your blood to go out and do them.
When that paper due tomorrow is bringing you anxiety so you need to take the edge off but you still need to do that damn paper
Even though coffee does nothing to affect the alcohol at all.
At the bar I work at, nothing fancy but a nice place, we make our Irish coffee slightly differently, heat the whiskey and sugar syrup then add the coffee really slowly so that there is a distinct separation of the whiskey and coffee layer, then add chantilly cream on the top which then gives you a really cool 3 tier drink which looks really class. Just an idea for those who want to make this
Well I wanted to make Irish coffee but literally have none of the ingredients. So I used Jim bean, instant nestle coffee and pure cane sugar. Close enough.
I would claim that instant coffee is the exact right kind of coffe e to use in an Irish Coffee, and I am quite pretentious when it comes to coffee. The thing about freeze dried coffees, especially of decently well known brands (like nestle), is that they are uniform. Every blend they make is the same (because uniformity was important when they established themselves and that way they can incorporate more "dud" harvests that doesn't taste good alone - so cheaper), which works great when you just want "a coffee", wihtout any particular exiting taste to it. It is inoffensive, edging towards bland, and perfect to add all manner of crap to, like whiskey, whipped cream or moonshine.
now that's a drink i can respect
The ONE important thing is: don't use weakass american so-called coffee, if it isn't black enough that you don't see the bottom of the cup even after 1/10th cup then it's dishwater and not coffee. As long as the cofee is strong enough, and the booze is some kind of wiskey. and you put cream in it. whatever.
Jim... Bean?
@@grapetonenatches186 That's actually a good name for coffee with whiskey
So I’ve come to a realization this man loves nutmeg.
nutmeg is a strong narcotic you know
@@justanotheryoutubeuploader
Only the core. The grated part is the outer layer, dry and contains the most oils. You only use the outer layer (if you didn't know).
Actually, if you accidentally used the core, you could end in the hospital.
@@NothingXemnas I didn't know, I thought the whole nutmeg is. Thanks for clarifying!
@@justanotheryoutubeuploader
No problem! I also didn't know at first. Like, people using nutmeg far and wide, it should be ok... Then I learned it was poisonous stuff and thought to myself "why are people using it, then??". Later i discovered it has as "seed/nut" (idk the name), which has the actual poison and you only use the outer part.
I am still a bit concerned since idk how much you could grate before reaching the core. I imagine that even accidentally hitting it wont cause much problem (just don't be dumb and keep grating it).
I’ve never heard this thing about the core sand without looking into it yet I’m 99% sure it’s not true
I heard the words "a little nutmeg" and I don't think he realizes that he's summoning the immortal soul of Jason Townsend.
I have been looking for this comment lmao
I was thinking the same thing.
My exact thoughts!
I used to work at a pub that made an “Irish coffee” We used a tea spoon to float pouring cream on the top, and we used Jameson whiskey, not the best whiskey but the coffee brought out its fruity notes.
Well thats how its done over here,The right way.
In most places, we float the whisky and sugar too. Most fancy places have Irish coffee with 3 layers. Not even talking of the cream who should be a heavy cream slightly wheaped in the blinder.
Am I right in remembering that your also not supposed to stir the whiskey in?
@@lauriedepaurie if u layer the whisky /sugar with the coffee, there is no point of stirring anything. And anyway u need to heat the whisky quite heavily to layer it
@@lauriedepaurie and if u do it the way it was invented nearly 80 years ago, u don't layer anything. U just put Jameson and coffee and add wheap cream to cool everything
Man looks like the editor had fun
Danielle The chocolate rain reference lol
@@carlosmontoya5300 edgy
I trust a person who says Whole Foods sucks.
Irish here, generally we float a layer of cream on top using the back of a spoon. Canned whipped cream isn't really a thing over here!
Edit: Okay just want to clear something up quickly. I really like this channel and I’m sure this is a great recreation of the Irish coffee that the bar mentioned in the video served. I just wanted to give some insight into what an Irish coffee is to Irish people (a drink invented in Shannon airport to entertain Americans, if the stories are true). Keep up the good work!
I physically winced
Chris Kenny Thank you! Always makes me cringe when ppl say they make the original Irish Coffee and they use whipped cream, sacrilege. Also it tastes better with a layer of shaken cream instead of whipped.
I couldn’t believe what I just saw!!!
at least there was no Creme De Fuck (It's green u,GUIZE lioke de irish!) on like i've seen in other video's **barf**
Someone had to say it.
He was embarrassed to not have a certain brand of spray cream, but not to use spray cream to begin with.
"The irish coffee is a nightcap"
Me ma would disagree, its the best way to start the day.
The "Covfefe" took me out of the game entirely XD
100% excellent my friend.
The instant i saw "I turn away from the mic to inhale" I shot down to the comments to see if anyone else caught the Tay Zonday reference
nice catch ! Went to watch chocolate rain again xD !
God damn, I love you. Thank you both.
99% Not making coffee the "right" way,

Colin Campbell oh man someone’s edgy
Rolf
Is it the hipster?
Colin Campbell no
@@ciscomartinez6092
It's probably the hipster.
Great video, I was at The Dead Rabbit last spring and they floated unsweetened heavy cream on top. The sweet was all in the coffee. It was the best part of my first trip to NYC. Thanks for the show!!
Melitta filters are actually the real deal, no need to be ashamed of using the brand that started it all.
"Melitta" is the first name of the INVENTOR of the paper coffee filters, Melitta Bentz from Dresden/Germany. So everything else is only a copy of the original
Every other time i've used melitta filters in a chemex they seem to bust at the seam.
@@brandonmiller4868 Doesn't chemex require a specific filter?
The slowmo of pouring the whiskey into the measuring jig urks me a little. While it's photogenic, you are spilling your whiskey, yo! :-)
I saw that too. 🙁 All the drinks you've lost.
yo
Yesss. Yet his hands and the jigger seem ....clean....ish(?) in the following shot so I can only hope that they cut to a specific pour scene JUST for aesthetics with fake wisky props.....OR they're pouring over a plate/shallow bowl....and save all that spillage and then just drink it after.
I'm in denial that they're ACTUALLY wasting THAT MUCH whiskey.....or else I'd cry lol
I've watched a bunch of his videos now, and unless they are capturing the overflow, the dude has wasted at least a handle of liquor due to the sloppy pour technique.
Michael Zdanis They do have separate shots with the up close camera for the pours and garnishes to look fancy.
Dear Greg,
Big props to you for being super rational with the ISI whipper decision. You are missing nothing in not having one. More importantly, you are encouraging casuals / enthusiasts (who I imagine make up most of your audience) to keep it simple and leave fancy stuff to the professionals.
Much love from India. Cheers !
I wasted so much money on one of those things. I usually just end up whipping cream in my mixer. But I am a baker, so I have piping bags. As for rapid infusion. Fefh, just infuse into your base as you are building your whip/ foam. Save your money.
I got lucky and got one for free from someone who didn't know what they had.( Was missing nozzle)
Get a small empty bottle.
Quarter-fill with cream.
Shake until it sounds different.
Pour over back of a spoon.
@greenhowie: If you prefer something closer to the original Irish version that seems like a simple solution. However, if you like it with actual whipped cream, it’s not.
You don’t need to pay over 100 bucks for a whipper, Amazon sells nice quality whippers for $30 and the cartridges are about 20 bucks for 25pc...
And that should last a long time as long as you’re not huffing the gas
I also add Bailey's and Disaronno. It is amazing and I recommend a try in your free time. Probably half ounce of each.
I'm a big fan of Irish Coffee and I've tried many different whiskeys. But when i tried Jack Daniels just for the hell of it, it instantly became my favorite! If you haven't tried it with Jack Daniels you should!
LOVING the annotations throughout this video. Seems like something new you're trying. They add a lot of humor to your already very funny style. Awesome work Greg!
At 5:35 was that a chocolate rain reference?
I caught that!
he earned a like because that reference! good job editor, good job Charlie for getting it too :D
Had me laughing
Came here to write that but I'm not the only one.
woah, this is unexpected!
CZcams started showing this channel in my recommendations...
Well damn! I like it, downside is, now I want Irish coffee, so I gotta get me some good whiskey.
Glad you found my show!
Bushmills is an incredibly cheap whiskey, should only run you about $20-24 for the regular bottle he used here. The simplicity of a cheaper Irish whiskey like that will likely help the overall drink because something stronger and more complex would likely drown out or compete with the other flavors in the drink.
"It's just about having the right ratios..."
Later: "Just fill it to eye, it's fine" xD
I visited Dead Rabbit Grocery and Grog last time I went to NYC and I have to say you hit the nail on the head. Their Irish Coffee is indescribable. Not to mention the rest of their cocktail menu.
As mentioned by a few others, I prefer Brown sugar and heavy whipping cream (I use a milk frother I have for my drip coffee machine. Just a glass beaker with a little frother pump on it). I also tend to go with Tullamore Dew. It's a bit of a sweeter Irish and pairs well with the little bit of bitter brown sugar. I have tried bourbon in this as well...did not go well. LOL.
Thanks for the videos. I just subbed a day ago and happen to be browsing some of your older videos
Keep doing what you're doing, my man. I appreciate the hell out of these videos.
Your videos are literally a nightcap for me and my wife.
We love your filming, music, and sense of humor.
This is one of my favorite drinks, specially because it's super simple and it's a must every winter.
How to drink, the show about how to drink *in the middle of the day*
When there are so many great drinks the night isn't long enough
Listen, don't yuck someone's yum!
The livestream during this was a great watch and a really nice look behind the scenes, thank you for that greg
i loved how he knew everything about how he should have made his coffee but still did it the way he wanted . Thanks for the awesome video !👍
Never seen Irish coffee made with whipped cream. Usually, i've seen it with cream that's poured slowly over the back of a spoon to make sure your drink looks like a Guinness pint with a white top. Also, by sweetening the coffee, it normally helps create visible separate layers for the whisky and coffee, meaning you have three visible layers that then you can mix (or not) after serving, to your liking.
Bruno Billion a Guinness pint isn’t even the real was to drink it. A tulip glass is the proper way. Also, whip cream is used usually by Irish immigrants into different European countries. Germany, France, Poland, Czech... just about every place I’ve been.
Bruno the cream has to be whipped until it has a certain viscosity though hit still pours. The sugar helps the coffee and whiskey get slightly more dense, helping the cream to float. And we never really have it separated 3 ways, just 2.
Omg that sounds amazing.
@@johnoconnor981 not whipped, shaken
If you ever make it to the area, go to The Buena Vista in San Francisco. Best Irish Coffee I'd ever had. They've been there since 1916 and are known for their Irish Coffee.
William North I was going to comment about the Buena Vista too. Hands down best Irish Coffee.
Their credited as being the inventors of it to.
Ryan Blodgett not quite, someone that later worked there invented it but did so while in Ireland.
Nope, all wrong. It was invented by an Irish chef working in Shannon Airport, circa 1940s. He prepared it for guests who were delayed on a transatlantic flight. One of the guests who had it was a journalist by the name of Stanton Delaplane. He lived and worked in SF, and the Buena Vista was his regular bar. He told the owner of the drink he had been given in Shannon Airport, and they attempted to replicate it.
Sourcing Irish Whiskey, coffee, and sugar was no issue, however it was the cream which was the biggest obstacle. The cream sold commercially was not suitable, as it's fat content is too low, and would not float over the mix below. They found a dairy that would make them high fat content cream to replicate the Irish Coffee Stanton had in Ireland.
The Buena Vista did not make the Irish Coffee, but they absolutely popularised it, and can be credited for bringing it to a wider audience than expected.
There is other theories of the origin, one being a bar in Dublin by the name of Bad Bob's, but the Shannon theory is most plausible.
Slainte!
I absolutely LOVE your enthusiasm for just how much you enjoyed that drink! I love your channel as well, both for the nuance you put into your drinks as well as the historical references you often put into the mix. A lifetime ago, I tended bar at The Dubliner in DC. We made an incredible Irish Coffee, pretty much to the specs you offered. I would just like to add that using the actual hand whipped, bakers whipped cream really does make a difference & is a secret to absolute coffee perfection (& that goes for any coffee drink, not just the irish). Damn, now I want an Irish Coffee! :-)
Hah, great video! A moment before you revealed your favorite irish coffee spot, I turned to my guy and told him "whatever he says, the best is at The Dead Rabbit!" I almost fell off my seat when you confirmed it is, indeed, the best irish coffee! Can't wait to try the recipe, and thank you for the amazing video!
just a rec from jeffrey morgenthaler, which he uses for the spanish coffee. he takes heavy cream, puts it into a mason jar, and shakes until it firms up and gets a good consistency. i've used it and have gotten a nice white head on the coffee.
This. Whipped cream is too hard, should be really cold, slightly thickened cream.
That's a good trick, Leandro at the educated barfly does that too, he puts heavy cream in a squeeze bottle with the coil from a strainer and shakes it up. Makes it nice and thick for layering on top.
That chocolate rain reference is so old but so, so good.
Watched this video last winter and loved the recipe. Since then forgot the recipe and had to re-watch. Just now saw the sill captions you put on the side and lauughed my a$$ off. Thank you for providing such entertaining and educational content. Really appreciative it!
I made this today - almost exactly as your recipe dictates. I used Bushmill's Irish Whiskey, It has a great flavor. I didn't use whipped cream. I used heavy cream shaken so it became aerated and sat on top of the coffee, It was a wonderful drink. Thank you.
Whoever edits your videos is amazing, love the drop down description haha. If it's you, even better, anyone who can make fun of themselves in a satire sense is winning in my book!
Wow! Thank you very much man. I’m having one right now. I was so excited when you said Bushmills! I’m using Bushmills 16 and it is so rich and buttery! It is by far the best Irish Coffees I’ve ever had. Looking forward to more.
The slow mos on this channel are GORGEOUS. That red tint the coffee gave off was beautiful.
>uses a chemex
>and pre-ground coffee
"in the vast void of space there is only entropy and darkness. i am chaos incarnate."
@Kenneth chemex is just maximum coffee autism, and pre ground coffee is maximum virgin baby coffee. these two things should never mix
@@kana22693 that's fine, I'm just saying go full caffeine mode or full snob, mixing pre ground and a complicated chem ex system is just funny to me
Wish this had dropped before I had my coffee.
Eddy Eikdal right? Almost finished with mine already
Maybe just being me being a student whose blood only consist of Coffee and Alcohol but.. You can't have to much coffee just go grab another one. This is truly an opportunity to good to pass on ;) .
@@ThePoutamo One can have too much when they drink cold brew that you can't shine a light through as I do.
I've spent a lot of time this winter dialing in my Irish Coffee. I've found that making coffee with a French Press (I use the Hoffman method if that's worth anything to you) works really well--much better than a Chemex, v60, drip, etc. Other methods I use tend to taste watered down once the whiskey has been added, but French Press coffee is really full-bodied and stands up against a few more ounces of dilution. French Press also has a strong flavor which comes through over the sweet and spicy notes of the Bushmills and simple syrup.
I also tend to double the recipe (2 oz. of whiskey and 7-8 oz. of coffee) for a bigger and boozier cup to warm you up!
I use the hoffman method too; often times I'll swap syrup or sugar for cocoa mix and give it two ounces to about that 8 ounces as well.
usually do this on my day off to take the edge off my day.
I will accept your apology over the coffee filter. I tried this recipe and it was quite good! Thanks for posting this recipe here! The whole ritual of making pour over coffee is similar to cigars in that it’s centering, relaxing and is half the appeal. The key thing though is you have to have the time because if you’re in a rush it won’t be enjoyable.
The old time bar music really makes your videos pleasant to watch!
I never thought I could be *inspired* into drinking myself to a drowsy stupor, but that intro did it.
5:34 - Please tell me that was a Tay Zonday reference.
But of course
I appreciated the little "Chocolate Rain" reference there!
I once went to these snob coffee places and got served with a brew that tasted like half a lemon was squeezed in. I asked the barista what's the deal with the coffee sourness and he responded that's this is the perfect floral taste and I should know that.
I stick to my home drip since then. And started enjoying good tea even more.
I, for one, appreciate your insistence on using proper English and terminology.
I love watching you cuz you show us that you don’t need to make a drink perfectly for it to be perfect. Thanks for not being to perfect with that coffee but.
Bit
I work at an Austrian owned coffee and wine bar, and we do something a little theatric when we make irish coffee- we steam the whiskey to get it hot, then set it on fire, mix in sugar in the raw, and then douse the flame with coffee and top with whipped cream and espresso grounds. Its a fun drink to make!
Fill a cup with cold water, microwave it for 1½ minute, add instant coffee. That's how much patience I have when I make coffee ;)
.... Buy a kettle...???
Nevermind this Was 2 years ago 😅
pourover is really easy
Love the cut to you on the beach set when you mentioned leisure lol.
Also Greg I made cinnamon syrup because on how you recommend it, but now I don't have that many cocktails to use it in! I'd love to see a nice cinnamon drink made soon since it's still Winter ;D
Planning to make my own grenadine and ginger syrup because of Greg's videos.
Little tip: gin swizzle from the drinks tube channel.
This drink is simple, cheap and every party I go to people go absolutely crazy for this drink. Like I can bring enough cinnamon syrup for the amount of requests I get ^^ gone within one hour :)
dude sub that in for your old-fashioned, you will no longer have this problem
*Good Math Vibes use it in an irish coffee..! its amazing i made some (lets call it a few) yesterday and while drinking the first one "made as per Greg's instructions" I got the idea to use cinnamon syrup and its great, and also started putting a tiny bit of nutmeg into the cup also..
@@jasonross000 I made the ginger syrup and it was good in Moscow mules! :) Don't be shy with grating the ginger before cooking if you like spice...my syrup was not spicy enough for me.
Besides Irish Coffee. In these cold winter days of northern hemisphere (-20c/-4f) I recomend you to try mint hot chocolate. It’s made from clear mint schnapps/mint booze known as ”minttu viina” in finnish (since it’s made in Finland) mixed with sweet hot chocolate and topped with whipped cream. Add grated chocolate for garnish. Instead of ”minttu viina” you can use creme de menthe liquer but bear in mind that ”minttu viina” is 35%alc (70 proof) where creme de menthe is only 24%alc (48 proof) and needless to say it’s green instead of clear booze.
It’s perfect after some outside activities to warm you up. Alternatively you can make a batch to your thermos bottle and take a break with your activities :)
Thanks for the video by the way :)
I briefly worked at a fairly renowned Irish pub in California and to the best of my recollection, this was our recipe:
Served in a 6oz cocktail glass
1.5oz Tullamore Dew
.5oz simple syrup
Fill glass with coffee leaving about a quarter inch from the rim. We used a high quality medium-dark roast from a local roaster. Damn fine cup on its own.
Float with heavy cream (pour it over a spoon)
Simple, beautiful, and incredibly delicious. None of this whipped cream nonsense 😂
This channel is awesome, btw.
This cocktail has NEVER been more necessary as when I first moved to a cold climate. Makes it SO much more bearable. Cheers!
I always thought Irish Coffee had Bailey's in it. You learn something everyday!
It's then simply called a Bailey's Irish coffee.
@@thebelfastvikingmartinbrow3603 ahh I gotchu. I assume that everything else is the same then?
Same recipe just with some bailey's added?
This is like if you want a sort of black coffee version. Bailey's is if you want more of a creamy latte style drink. Also, use flavoured bailey's cream, it will change your fucking life i shit you not.
@@Sub7Fitness You can substitute Baileys for the whiskey or add Baileys to the recipe. They are all good! If you use any Baileys you probably want to cut down on the sugar syrup (or brown sugar or Demerara sugar) you used unless you want a diabetic coma!
@@billsunflowers Thank you Bill!
I was just thinking you would probably want less demerara syrup!
Happy to report that this is a fabulous drink in warmer climes as well.
- *random dude from warmer climes.
Oh gosh, this looks good. Thanks for sharing. Loved the whipped cream delema.
I love your content bro, been watching for years, perfected my bar tending skills thanks to you
Nah, off-the-boil is actually better for drip. By the time the water falls through the air and mixes with the grounds/slurry, it's well below 210F. Try it next time! Along with stirring your bloom.
Using cooler water is more important in espresso where pressure is involved, and the hot water from the group head is right up against the grounds.
You also probably got a bit better of a brew for Irish using the Melittas. Chemex filters are so thick that they really thin out the brew. A bit more body with a medium-dark brew does pretty well with the cream+sugar+Irish in this drink.
Good stuff, Greg!
boil water, then drop from up high, trying to not burn yourself
reduce the distance from the grain gradually, making it so that as water cools in the recipient, you get less air cooling as well.
+1 for a little stir during the bloom. lets that center bit of your grounds aerate properly. You'd be surprised at the difference it makes!
Morning upload and it's an Irish coffee. Guess I'm getting drunk before noon again
I've only had Irish coffee once and it was one of the most exotic and different drinks I have ever had in my life thus far. I never thought coffee and booze would mix to perfection if blended and crafted to perfection but this drink is absolutely amazing if done right.
After a lot of Bar rescue binging, youtube recommend this channel lol but I'm not complaining, really nice vids man! That Irish Coffee looked so damn good!
I quite enjoyed your version of it! My version is typically coffee, Redbreast 12 or Sherry Cask, brown sugar syrup, and a dollop of heavy cream on the top.
You are living the best life
Typically it's topped with a floated layer of double/heavy cream over here across the pond. Whipped cream is for cocoa.
Great video Tay Zonday -- I've been really enjoying your channel lately. Love me some Irish coffees. When I make them, I imitate the Buena Vista Cafe in SF. 2 sugar cubes, hot coffee, Tullamore Dew and hand-whipped heavy whipping cream. Absolutely amazing. Keep up the great work!
These vids are off the chain my man. Have you ever used a burr grinder? They sell them at bed bath and beyond. Key to consistent coffee is a consistent grind and water temp. A burr grinder gives you the exact grind you want everyday. Absolute game changer my friend.
I WANT to invest in a decent grinder, but will not buy a disposable one, but also can’t justify the expense of the stuff I want just yet. I have it ground at my local roasters when I buy it currently.
I got an ad for a hangover cure lol youtube knows what happens when i watch videos from this channel
Sooo glad the show is back with such frequent uploads! Back when it was sorta having a break... dark times man, dark times.
I went to the dead rabbit when I was in NYC last week. I was blown away, a life changing Irish coffee and general cocktail experience
I have found my go to cocktail and alcoholic entertaining channel on CZcams. I'm amazed at how awesome your content is!!!! Thank you good Sir!👌👌
Buena Vista in San Francisco is LEAGUES better than Dead Rabbit's Irish Coffee
Chris Toribio I came here to say the same thing!
Yes, yes, yes!
what do they use?
True that
I have had both a few times... and the Dead Rabbit's is so much better!
Man, that Chocolate Rain Joke was Genius 😂
Really wanted to learn how to make my own Irish Coffee drink. Followed what you did and Dang! Freaking delicious! Thank you!!
Just discovered this channel and god I love it! And this was my first alcoholic drink I tried when I turned 21. And I also love the background music!
My late brother could always make the perfect coffee. He ground the beans himself, used a coffee press, everything. He was always anal about how much he ground up, how hot the water was, fucking good coffee too.
Great it's 330 in the morning and somehow still washing this channel when I got to get up in 3 hours to go to work
This is my favorite episode so far, hilarious... And I've gotta make that now!
Sharing a home recipe here lol ^.^
8 oz Espresso
2 oz Bourbon (Whisky is fine too, but I like the smoothness Bourbon has)
4 oz Bailey's Irish Cream
1 Heaping tablespoon brown sugar
Top with cinnamon and nutmeg
I have gotten MANY papers written thanks to this mix lol... the wherewithal of being sober, and the flowing creativity of drunk.
I know I'm being an ass but that would be an American coffee, it's the Irish whisky that makes it a Irish coffee.
Personal I prefer American coffees.
I use Buffalo Trace usually but Jack Daniels fire is fantastic.
I make mine 50ml coffee liquor.
50ml baileys
50ml bourbon
2 x Double espresso.
Double cream
Demeria sugur syrup.
Mint chocolate.
@@davidvarley1812 Maybe? I'm not sure where you are, but I'm from the NW side of the states; any coffee with whiskey/bourbon tends to be called an Irish coffee - regardless of origin. Same with adding tequila makes it a Meixcan coffee, even if the tequila came from California.
@@RikuIshmaru I'm British. The Irish would argue that a Irish coffee must contain Irish whisky.
However if you prefer it with bourbon (which I do) then what does it matter what you call.
Glad to see Bushmills used. As for the basic Irish whiskies, I prefer Bushmills over the much more popular Jameson's. I will have to try this Irish coffee recipe for sure!
1st love this drink been waiting since season one
Gregg- just wanted to let you know that you inspired me to renew my TX AB cert
Thanks man
I don’t know why I watch drinking videos, I hate getting drunk but I’ll watch these videos all day long
You should do a whole show of warm drinks for the winter especially around the holidays
My inner coffee snob is screaming at you.... I make a masterful cup of coffee. I will forgive you in exchange for this Irish coffee recipe.
I'm not a coffee snob and don't understand why coffee snobs love chemex and pour over methods in general.
I can brew a better cup with my shitty >$10 french press from Wal-mart.
@@ryansmith8 actually chemex specifically is frowned upon with coffee snobs but a v60 or a kalita makes an excellent cup of coffee if you know how to use it right and dial it in. Personally I much prefer pour over to french press, but it's all about technique. But to each their own
I spat with laughter at your extravagant “life of leisure” 😂
Yep, always think of the Caribbean when I sip my Irish coffee!
What a beautiful intro
Hi Greg, i couldn't help but notice your subscribers increased from under 296K(i think) to breaking 300K (now 301K) in the past few days!! Big congrats!!!
(I noticed because I have been binging your videos for the past few days...)
Also, as a fellow New Yorkers, do you mind doing a video running down the list of your recommended bars with good crafted cocktails? I do like to start somewhere after all your mouthwatering videos :)
At my pub this is basically our recipe, but we shake our own cream with Benedictine and float it on the top. So good. :D Thanks for the videos!! Loving them!
The Dead Rabbit! Best Irish Coffee around! So happy they re-opened this year!! :D
I have an Idea for a winter Cocktail. Here where i live ist calld Lumumba and is basicly hot chokolade with Rum and wipped cream but maby you have a way to elevate that drink. besides that i realy love the Show and im watching Forward for new episodes
Love the comments! "Where is this going" "Oh my God " "all of that, for this" 😂 also, as a coffee-geek, I am taking the word "coffeesque"... sounds another level of elegant ☕️🤎 #Coffeesque™
Try dry shaking heavy whipping cream with a few cubes of sugar. And go easier on the sugar (never syrup) you’re already adding whiskey and cold canned whipped cream to a cold glass. That drink will not exceed 80 degrees, and it’s supposed to be hot. The syrup is just one more thing cooling it down, also heat the glass with hot water. I was an Irish Coffee machine at The Gold Dust Lounge in SF. We sold hundreds of them daily.
oh man this is next level- in my family an Irish Coffee is a mug of cappuccino out of the espresso machine topped up with Baileys ;P
