Tips:

Choose high-quality coffee beans. Freshly roasted, whole beans are ideal.
Grind the coffee beans just before brewing. This will ensure the freshest flavor.
Use filtered or spring water for brewing. Avoid distilled water, as it can produce a flat-tasting cup of coffee.
Heat the milk to just below boiling (about 160 degrees Fahrenheit). This will help to create a creamy froth.
Use a good quality Irish whiskey. A smooth, single malt whiskey is ideal.
Add the whiskey, coffee, and sugar to a preheated glass. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
Top with the frothed milk. Grate some nutmeg or sprinkle some cocoa powder on top for garnish.

With its rich, creamy flavor and smooth, nutty finish, it is sure to please even the most discerning coffee drinker. So next time you are looking for a special treat, give nutty Irish coffee a try.
