National Irish Coffee Day

Irish coffee is a cocktail beverage that combines hot coffee, Irish whiskey, sugar, and whipped cream. It is typically served in a glass mug, and the whiskey and sugar are mixed into the coffee before topping it with a layer of whipped cream. The combination of coffee, whiskey, and sugar provides a warm and comforting taste, while the whipped cream adds a creamy and slightly sweet contrast. The origins of Irish coffee are attributed to a chef named Joe Sheridan, who served the first Irish coffee to passengers at an airport in Ireland in the 1940s. Since then, Irish coffee has become a popular beverage in bars and restaurants around the world, especially during the winter months.
