FAQs:
Can I make this drink non-alcoholic?
Yes, simply omit the Irish whiskey and use non-alcoholic Baileys-flavored coffee creamer.
Why add whiskey to Irish coffee?
Irish whiskey adds a depth of flavor and a touch of warmth, making the drink more complex and enjoyable.
How hot should the coffee be?
It should be hot enough to enjoy immediately but not so hot that it damages the Elixir Mixer. A good rule of thumb is less than 176°F.
Can I use any type of coffee?
Absolutely! Feel free to use your favorite coffee - whether it's a dark roast, espresso, or even decaf.
How can I make a dairy-free version?
Use a dairy-free Baileys alternative and top with coconut or almond-based whipped cream.
