Elevate your coffee game with this luxurious Gaelic Iced Coffee, a delightful fusion of bold flavors and creamy indulgence. This easy-to-make cocktail combines robust, freshly brewed coffee with the smooth warmth of Irish whiskey, subtly sweetened with simple syrup. Topped with a luscious layer of lightly whipped heavy cream flavored with vanilla, each sip offers a perfect balance of rich, boozy, and velvety notes. Served over ice for a refreshing twist, this elegant beverage is ideal for brunches, cozy evenings, or as an after-dinner treat. Master the art of layering the cream for that stunning café-style presentation, and let this classic Irish-inspired drink add a sophisticated touch to your coffee repertoire.
Brew a cup of your favorite coffee and let it cool to room temperature or chill it in the refrigerator for faster results.
In a shaker or mixing glass, combine the Irish whiskey, simple syrup, and cooled coffee. Stir or shake well to mix.
In a separate container, lightly whip the heavy cream and vanilla extract until slightly thickened but still pourable.
Fill a tall glass with ice cubes and pour the coffee and whiskey mixture over the ice.
Gently layer the whipped cream on top by pouring it over the back of a spoon to float it over the coffee mixture.
Serve immediately with a straw or stir stick and enjoy your Gaelic Iced Coffee!
