How to make Irish Coffee?

It’s a wonderful Saturday afternoon and MF Products are still working hard to produce quality blogs for your entertainment and enjoyment. We’re 6 days away from Christmas and while some people may not be in the festive spirit, the MF Team are trying their hardest to maintain the Christmas joy during the holidays with as many coffee tips, tricks and recipes as we can. With 6 days to go, we as a group couldn’t be more excited to share with you guys not only just good recipes for your Christmas dinner but also good presents you can give to your family and friends too. It’s no surprise that that coffee and baileys can be used as a blissful Christmas drink however we like to have our twist on things. Many enjoy their Irish coffee slightly cold whilst the MF Team decided to experiment Irish coffee on the hot side, using the alcohol of the baileys and the heat to fire up those Christmas spirits in time for Santa.

So today, we’re going to be talking about Irish Coffee, how you can make it the MF Way but also where it came from and how it was created. Surprisingly, Irish coffee originated from Ireland in the city of Limerick and was created by a Joe Sheridan in 1943. It’s said that one night, at an airbase in Ireland, many passengers were left to freezing as they waited for their plane to be ready for departure and Joe Sheridan had an extremely high level of empathy for them. The story then goes that out of the kindness of his heart he create the concoction of coffee and whisky with the hopes of lifting everyone's spirits in the cold chamber. After that, word got around about Joe’s excellent creation and many couldn’t get enough of it ranging from businessmen to famous actresses such as Marilyn Monroe. The Irish Cofee has since become a well-renowned beverage that is implored and adored by many.

Here are the ingredients:

·         4 ounces of hot MF Coffee

·         1 1/2 ounce Irish Whiskey (baileys can be used, it simply depends on how strong you like it)

·         2 teaspoons of brown sugar ​

·         1 ounce of lightly whipped double cream

·         The MF Products team suggest adding MF Nutmeg and/or MF Cinnamon (stocks available soon)

Method:

1.       Begin to brew your MF Coffee

2.       Pour the sugar and then the coffee into a warmed mug.

3.       Stir until dissolved.

4.       Add your preferred whiskey and stir again.

5.       Float the cream on top by pouring it over the back of a spoon. MF Products advises to not stir again. Instead, drink the coffee through the cream as this is personally a much more satisfying sensation for us.

And that's how to make MF Irish Coffee!

Bananas are also a good source of potassium and due to its low water content, it contains more calories and is more filling. This pairs wonderfully with the benefits of soursop (previously mentioned in another blog) as it; possesses antioxidants, fights against bacteria, and boosts the immune system.
