lil carb Irish Coffee


In honor of Saint Patricks Day I am sharing my favorite restaurant dessert drink to order!
This boozy coffee drink is so easy to make at home and it really warms your belly.  If you are enjoying this at night and don't want the added caffeine just brew up some decaf coffee and you will be good to go!  As always- if you like your coffee a certain way with cream versus no cream, no sugar, more sugar- do whatever you enjoy this is exactly how I like to enjoy my Irish coffee but the beauty of cooking and eating and drinking is enjoying everything the way that you like it :)

lil carb Irish Coffee- Serves 1
6-8 oz coffee (decaf or regular)
1/2 - 1 shot of Whiskey - Jameson or Jack Daniels are my favorite (add as much as you prefer)
1-2 packets Truvia (about 1-2 tsp)
Half and Half - optional
whipped cream for topping
ground nutmeg
ground cinnamon

Brew your coffee.
Add the sugar and whiskey to the bottom of your mug.
Pour coffee in.
Stir well.
Add half and half if you are using it.
Stir again.
Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg.
Sip and Enjoy!
