Cold Irish Cocktail

Cold Irish Cocktail

Yesterday a storm finally brought down the temperature to an acceptable level. Therefore, thanks to the cool weather, I recovered the desire to prepare something alcoholic. This cocktail is actually a long drink, but I preferred to remove from the recipe the soda water which, in my opinion, dilute the taste too much. I also like to serve it still warm (thanks to the coffee) on ice, especially in colder seasons.

Ingredients for a drink: 1/3 oz. Crème de Cacao White liqueur, 1 and 1/3 oz. Irish Whiskey, 2/3 oz. Irish Mist (or use an additional 2/3 os. of Irish Whiskey and half a coffee spoon of liquid honey), 1 and 2/3 oz. strong coffee (italian espresso), 2/3 oz. fresh cream.

Preparation: put in a tumbler glass (or in a large goblet) two ice cubes, pour (build) the ingredients in the order as listed above and stir gently.

che bella atmosfera che pervade questa immagine. Calda, soft, confortevole come dovrebbe essere una sorsata di questo cocktail.

Buona giornata, meno male qui c'è un venticello freschino...

I don't care much for cocktails, really... but I'm always amazed at your amazing photos... I want to be like you when I'm younger :-)
