December Birth Coffee
Birth Coffee
Irish Coffee
Irish Coffee was created in 1943 by chef Joe Sheridan at Foynes Flying Boat Base in Ireland as a warming hot cocktail to comfort passengers waiting in the bitter cold for their connecting flights on the transatlantic route. This drink transcends being merely a beverage, symbolizing the warm spirit of hospitality that connects people, offering hope and comfort even in harsh cold. With its complex and rich flavor profile where coffee's bitterness, whiskey's richness, sugar's sweetness, and cream's gentleness layer beautifully, it serves as a sacred drink beloved worldwide. It stands as a special companion to the multifaceted emotions of December, from Christmas Eve's sanctity to year-end's bustling energy.
