Learn how to make an original Irish coffee recipe with this 'Mad Men' Irish Coffee recipe. Featured in an episode of the AMC hit show, this recipe comes from the Pierre Hotel in New York City. It's made with Irish whiskey, brown sugar, coffee & more.
Notes
The hotel uses Bushmill’s Irish Whiskey, but the drink also works well with John Jameson Irish Whiskey. Any variety of whiskey made in Ireland will suffice, hence the name “Irish Coffee.”
