Easy to make Bailey's whipped cream for Irish Coffee

The perfect Irish Coffee Recipe

The perfect Irish Coffee starts with the whipped cream. Don't go buy a can! It is so simple to make and you will impress everyone with the best-whipped cream of their lives. Simply put the mixing bowl and beater in a freezer for a half hour and get nice and cold. When you get your mixer bowl and beater from the freezer and place it back on the mixer to get your needed supplies:

  1. 1 cup of heavy whipping cream
  2. 2 heaping tablespoons of sugar
  3. 1 teaspoon of Bailey's Irish Cream

Simply place all ingredients into the mixer bowl and mix on high for approximately 1 minute. If you whip it too little it will be runny, mix it too much and you have butter. The whipped cream will be ready when you put a spoon in it and it makes nice mounds. Now we are ready to make our perfect Irish Coffee!

Where was Irish Coffee Invented?

Irish Whiskey was created in 1943 in Foynes, Ireland. A plane had to return to the restaurant at the Foynes airport after flying in really bad weather. The chef decided to add a bit of Irish Whiskey to the passengers coffee to help them warm up. When a passenger asked if it was Brazillian Coffee the chef replied, " No that was Irish Coffee" and a new drink was created.
