New Olreans Best Cocktails: The Irish Coffee

[C5Rigzz]

He makes me happy there is class and sophistication still left in the world.

[SalamanderTalent]

Chris does it right and with style

[MidnightSundowns]

Now THIS is a bartender!

[scottylad79]

stop tlking shite and get on with making it

[ironprince19]

exactly how i make mine. Altho i do like to garnish with a pinch of chocolate powder and 3 coffee beans as odd numbers are lucky to the irish. Other variations of this drink include the Mexican using kahlua, Jamaican Frangelico and the French using urgghhh..... i forgot lol

[weeknightingale]

OMG! Oh my goodness another perfect creation! Just the way it should be made by a Master.

Thank you!

[librexpresion]

02:28 - 02:40 OMG!!! You're getting the cream from within yourself!!!

[MAJIKVEGGIE]

Irish Coffee is 40x more expensive than gasoline.

[UpcomingJedi]

@MAJIKVEGGIE Many things are more expensive than gas. Take printer ink: around $2000/gal or so. Whats up with that??? Funny thing is that people dont complain.

[dumbmeghan]

god this guy is good.

[brokereens]

Just one thing is missing... 3 coffee beans on top for "good luck"

Thank you for quality videos guys!

Chears!

[anurek123]

holly crap fresh cream!! you are best!! this is awesome!:D

[schulleee]

@anurek123

... i don´t really get the reason for your excitement oO

of course it is fresh cream ... but you could also take old and shitty one if you like ^^

[1891serru]

@3:06 Delicious! Sounds like Kevin from The Office.

[coffeeman199]

More crap !! Ice cold coffee and thin cream !!!! Tis supposed you warm you up not freeze da nuts off you!!!

[HeavyMetaLPepi]

what the fuck is wrong with this guy this is shit!!!!!

[royceleanzer]

@HeavyMetaLPepi

stfu

[Hogo69]

Man I'm really craving one of these now but I'll go for 2 shots irish whiskey in mine :).

[elreboltoso90]

He is to slow

[Passitivity]

@elreboltoso90 would you rather have some dude just dump a shot of whiskey into a cup of coffee, or let him take his time and make it this way? (hint: it's the second one)

[YearraeY]

uh .. i love..uhh.....irish coffee...uhhh

thumb up.

[kazesamurai1000]

awesome! can you make it with extra cream so its almost at the top?

[schulleee]

@kazesamurai1000

i suggest to do so lol

otherwise you will be drinking plain coffe and whiskey after a few sips =P

[NilsBritney]

Finally! A bartender who doesnt use a straw in this kind of drink!

[darkwizzard]

Having one right now. As an added tip. You'll see towards the end he mixes the coffee well before adding the cream but takes the time after mixing the coffee to mix the cream. This time is needed so you don't have the coffee swirling too fast while you add the cream or the cream gets sucked down into the coffee instead of remaining on top.

[ZehEduardo]

2:28

Oooh Dirty McWillian is making his irish love cream

[DentalFlossBush1]

@ZehEduardo Aaaaahahahaha!!!

[steok777]

yea this dude knows his shit...why did it take me so long to find his videos ha....so refreshing to see sum1 on youtube that can make a real irish coffee and so many other great drinks....annoying to see the american shit of putting crap de menthe on top cos its grenn...idiots

thanks once again!!!

[OettingerCroat]

should raw sugar or brown sugar be used?

[zerozander]

@OettingerCroat Most use brown sugar, but I think either one is acceptable.

[tomboz777]

But wheres the whipped cream, the hurricane glass, and crap de menthe?;D

Nice to see someone who can make it properly, the other 'Irish Coffee's' on youtube are utter bollocks.

[afterapplepicking]

@tomboz777 He used partially whipped cream.

And don't knock Creme de Menthe. Poirot drank that, and he was a great detective.

[rogeybo]

Having been inspired to start making cocktails by these videos, watching all of them repeatedly, and trying most of the preparations in just a couple of months, I want to say thank you VERY much Messrs Marszalek and McMillian for your wonderful efforts. Whenever I watch anyone else make a drink, I wish I could get Chris's take on it. I would happily pay for a DVD set of Chris making every cocktail he knows!

Cheers and thanks again. Please make more!

[noerebronx]

i once read that you need to ad the spirit at the end so that the hot coffee does not make the alcohol ?steam? away.. pardon my bad enlish, but do you know what i mean? is this just b*** S*** or do you think the hot coffee could have any effect on the spirit?

[kohamajima27]

Dear Mr. Mc Willian, I would like to thank you for all the nice and so well done cocktail videos that you're showing us! I have been watching your videos many times with the total confidence that you're really showing how it has to be done and now, I'm finally getting a job as a bartender!! You're truly a Cocktail Maestro I would say!!! Thank you!

[Mack2No1]

can u please put at the final of the vid the recipe for the drink, not only for this one.

[HeWhoHatesCats]

2:28-2:42 that doesn't look right...

[twochaudio]

,ya he,s floting it hes, a bad man

[herringsinthewood]

He said it was fresh...

[wotg]

I belive this is the only vid on youtube that treats this drink with some dignety.

Demerara suger is a crucial ingredient to making a great irish coffee. The sticky brown sugar commonly used is terrible and bland.

This guy uses brewed coffee. In the bar i`m working i`m using a doubble shot of espresso topped with hot water - a doubble americano if you will.

I serve my irish coffee in a red wine glass, it looks a bit classier.

[Gek1188]

Ha the only video that has shown how to make a proper irish coffee... There is hope!! two small things shold be two spoons of sugar not three also there should be more coffe you wont drown the flavour and jonh350z there is most definatly sugar in an irish coffee its what makes the (SEMI-WHIPPED CREAM NEVER EVER THE CAN CREAM!!!) float... Swing over to us in dublin and we'll show ya how to make it the right way :)

[teamsharkie]

This guy is great because he uses fresh ingredients in all the drinks. I'd definitely tip extra if he were my bartender.

[KetchSup]

@teamsharkie You would tip this guy? He didn't even bother to heat the whiskey, he mixed the sugar whit whiskey even though you should do so with espresso. He didnt use fresh grinded espresso beans and neither did he use a spoon which makes the whip cream fall down to coffee and lose the point of the irish coffee which is drinking a hot steaming coffee with whiskey thruough a cold ass whiped cream. I bet that shit he made was bitter as hell not sweet and tasty how irish coffee really should be

[NeatStar]

You're a moron.

1. The glass was hot, ergo 1 oz of whiskey was heated very easily.

2. Mixing the sugar with the whiskey is fine - it's still in the drink.

3. How do you know the coffee was not fresh?

4. Cream floats. A spoon makes it easier to achieve achieve this, however this gentleman can float freshly whipped perfectly easily - it's not difficult.

5. Are you 12 or something? He used three spoonfuls of sugar and only one shot of sprit. This drink will be plenty sweet.

[robertkacala]

@NeatStar brown sugar is less sweet...so use more :-)

whipped cream is floating very easy ,don't need bar spoon to layer.

[robertkacala]

@KetchSup

timing is important :

hot glass,pour the whiskey,add sirop de gomme add hot coffe, stirr so the sweet drink help to float the cream.

It should take max 15 sec to make it.

Don't warm whiskey ,u loose the alc/vol.Be quick !!! :-))

[jorgecaldelas]

very good!!!!

[Morbiddragonelf]

Cool. I like a little history on a drink's origin, when I learn how to make it. I would have filled the glass more...

[Sawta]

Toward the end of the video, he said you don't want to fill the cup up all the way, or else you'd have to worry about drowning out the taste of the whiskey and sugar.

[misotuki1]

john350z ..ur FIRED

[DrBones666]

Try this with ice cream

[john350z]

lol sugar in a irish coffee thats to funny and if i ever took that long to make a irish coffee i would get fired.

[Litkisla]

man if u dont know that irish coffee has sugar in it then you deserve to get fired...

[happyfunnyfoo]

idiot! irish coffee = whiskey/coffee/cube of sugar

[flairbartender89]

this is cutie. I love it how people try and get attention by making asses of themselves. No sugar in an Irish Coffee ?, you really did make an ass out of yourself...

[cfotoole]

Then I guess it's a good thing Chris McMillan doesn't work at Bennigans.
