What is in an Irish coffee?

An Irish coffee is a cocktail consisting of hot coffee, Irish whiskey, and whipped cream. It is traditionally served in a glass coffee mug. The coffee is typically made with dark roast coffee beans, and the whiskey is typically a blend of Irish whiskeys. The whipped cream is usually made from heavy cream and sugar. Some variations of the drink may include additional ingredients such as brown sugar, cinnamon, or nutmeg.
