Dark Chocolate Irish Coffee

by

Dark Chocolate Irish Coffee | Alyssa & CarlaIrish coffee isn’t something we drink every day, so it’s meant to be a bit indulgent. We’ve gone a step further and replaced the standard sugar with an even better substitute: dark chocolate syrup. It helps take some of the edge off.

If you didn’t think you liked Irish coffee before, this version might change your mind. So when you need some help powering through a long day of St. Patrick’s Day revelry, try this Dark Chocolate Irish Coffee for a caffeinated, chocolaty, boozy treat.

Dark Chocolate Irish Coffee
Makes 1 drink

1.5 oz Irish whiskey
1.5 oz Bailey’s Irish Cream
1 tablespoon dark chocolate syrup
1 cup hot coffee
Whipped cream

optional garnish: chocolate shavings

Pour coffee into a heatproof cup. Add the dark chocolate syrup and stir to dissolve. Add the whiskey and Bailey’s. Top with a generous dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle on some chocolate shavings.

  4. Someone tell me why I didn’t realize Irish Coffee had whiskey in it! I always thought it was just Bailey’s. Shows how often I make cocktails at home. 😛 I’m loving the thought of this one, though, with the dark chocolate added. Yum!

    PS. It was nice meeting you at Food Blog Forum! Or really, the airport. 😛
