I have a lot of guilty pleasures but one I often indulge in is Irish coffee. It doesn’t have the perfect balance of a daiquiri or the complexity and depth of an old fashioned but it does have three things I love: coffee liquor and whipped cream. The combination is good enough that it’s a satisfying indulgence on a cold night after a big meal. A classic Irish coffee is as the name suggests made with Irish whiskey but the simplicity of the drink makes it ripe for variation. Use the same hot coffee but swap out the whiskey for a different liqueur and maybe play around with the whipped cream just for fun. A world of possibilities opens up. Try this version with rum and butterscotch or one with the classic flavor combination of hazelnut and chocolate. This refreshing variation is a little more adventurous.
Minty-bitter Fernet Branca is not an easy flavor to appreciate and its intensity is ramped up when poured into a steaming cup of black coffee. But if you're a fernet lover this is for you.
