Irish Coffee for Winter #WarmUpDrinks

By

Happy New Year and welcome to the second installment of the Winter Warm-Up Drink Series hosted by Ellen of Family Around the Table! For the next five Fridays, now, we'll be featuring winter drinks guaranteed to warm you right up!

Stay Warm With These Sips


I readily admit that mine isn't a traditional Irish coffee. For one, I didn't use Irish whiskey. I had Scotch whiskey. And secondly, I don't sweeten it or use whipped cream. I prefer to add a dollop of foamed milk on top. But I am always of the mindset that you use what you have. And no matter what whiskey you use, I think this is a steaming cup of goodness that will warm you right up on a chilly evening.


Ingredients makes 2
  • 6 ounces strong coffee (I use a stovetop espresso machine and a dark roast coffee)
  • 1-1/2 ounces Scotch whiskey
  • foamed milk


Procedure
Pour whiskey (3/4 ounce per cup) into serving glasses. Pour in hot coffee.


Top the coffee with a dollop of foam and don't stir. Drink the coffee through the foam.
Sláinte!

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here. And there won't be a Twitter chat for this event, so you will have to dive into the articles themselves to read about our pairings and findings. Here's the line-up...

You're Invited: Take a (Virtual) Hawaiian Holiday with #FoodNFlix

By
Fall Break, Oahu, October 2017 For June, I am hosting  Food'N'Flix , the movie-watching, food-making group rallied by Heather of  All Roads Lead to the Kitchen . This week, my older son was supposed to graduate from high school and we were supposed to leave on a family vacation to the Big Island. But, as enter our eleventh week of being sheltered in place to flatten the curve of the coronavirus, all of our summer plans were canceled, including this long-planned graduation trip to Hawaii. Boo. I understand the need to self-isolate. And we are abiding by the social distancing guidelines put in place by our state. But, boo, nonetheless. Oahu, October 2017 So for this month's Food'N'Flix, I chose to open up the field and let all of the food bloggers take a (virtual) Hawaiian holiday.  My boys have been to Oahu several times with my parents in recent years as my dad grew up there and wanted to spend some time on the island with his grandsons.
