Caife Gaelach

Caife Gaelach (Irish coffee)

1 double measure Irish Whiskey
1 cup strong hot, black coffee
1 tablespoon double cream
1 heaped teaspoon sugar

Warm a stemmed whiskey glass. Put in the sugar, and
add enough very hot coffee to dissolve it. Stir well.
Top up with Irish Whiskey to within one inch of the top.
Hold a teaspoon, across the glass, curved side up, and
pour the cold cream over it, slowly, so that it floats
on top of the coffee. The cream must not be stirred in;
you drink the coffee through the cream.
