[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][SIZE=+2]Joe Sheridan's Original Irish Coffee Recipe [/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Ingredients[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]1 measure Irish whiskey[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]1 measure strong black coffee [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]2 teaspoons sugar[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]2 teaspoons fresh whipping cream[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Directions[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Heat the glass with boiling water so that it is good and hot. Add the whiskey, sugar and the hot coffee. Float the cream on top of the coffee. Do this by pouring the cream into a spoon rested just on the surface of the coffee. Let the cream flow into the bowl of the spoon and overflow onto the coffee. Lift the spoon as the cream builds up, so that a layer of cream builds up on top of the coffee. Since it is the sugar that allows the cream to float successfully do not try this in coffee without sugar. Do not stir. Irish coffee is best enjoyed by sipping the coffee through the cream.

I'll take one...skip the coffee. :bang:

Oh, and in honor of the silly amount of sleep I caught last night, I am making this my official typo day. All typos, all day.

The cream also holds in the alcohol, otherwise the heat of the coffee would cause it to evaporate.

Once again, you beat me to it. Who needs the coffee?
