Tips & Suggestions

Preparation

Preparation Tip 1

Make sure the coffee is actually hot, not lukewarm as this helps dissolve the Irish cream liqueur smoothly, providing a uniform flavour throughout the drink.

Preparation

Preparation Tip 2

If making homemade whipped cream, leave it unsweetened or very lightly sweetened since the drink is already sweet, making the role of cream limited to textural contrast.
