Buena Vista Irish Coffee Recipe
As we previously saw, making Irish coffee is easy. This Buena Vista Irish Coffee recipe is equally as rewarding as the basic recipe but it has a different kick, which may make you prefer this recipe over the rest. Remember these Irish coffee recipes are quick and fun. They do require a little skill but this can be achieved through practice. If you are looking to make a good and sophisticated impression, creating one of these delicious coffee recipes will be key to your success.
You will need hot water, a glass, freshly brewed coffee, two cocktail sugar cubes, a stirrer, a jigger (or shot) of your favorite Irish whiskey and fresh (preferably homemade) whipped cream.
To start off, you will need to fill your empty glass with the hot water to preheat the glass. After you fill it, let it preheat the glass for a few seconds and then proceed to dump the water out. Follow by pouring the freshly brewed coffee into the glass until it is about three quarters of the way filled. Then, place the two cocktail sugar cubes into the mix. Stir the mixture until the sugar cubes have dissolved. You can then add the shot or jigger of your favorite Irish whiskey into the coffee and sugar mix. Stir again. Then using a warm spoon, flip it over, and let the homemade whipped cream carefully slide over the spoon’s back and onto your Irish coffee mixture. You want to make sure that the whipped cream does not break into the Irish coffee’s surface.

Does anybody know the ‘actual’ brand of Irish whiskey they use at the Buena Vista Cafe in San Francisco? I had a couple this past June and it was top shelf.

About a year ago, the BV returned to the original brand of Irish whiskey — Tullamore Dew — the best!
