Many beverages worldwide are famous due to their rich taste or euphoric effects on the human body. But not many come close to the excellent flavor and calming aroma of the Irish cream coffee.

Today, we will talk about the history of this community-popular beverage and shed some light on many relevant aspects surrounding the production and options of the best Irish cream-flavored coffee. Let’s dive straight into the details.

What is Irish Cream Coffee?

Irish cream coffee is a blend of hot roasted coffee beans, sugar, whipped cream, and whiskey (optional). With the unique taste and rich aroma it brings to the table, Irish cream coffee is a popular beverage in many parts of the US, UK, and Canada.

The History of Irish Cream Coffee:

Foynes Port was a common ground for travelers to lodge or find their breath before continuing on their journey. It also had the biggest civilian airports in Europe, and whenever weather conditions were inappropriate, Joe Sheridan would have tons of guests in his little tavern.

It was the winter of 1943 in Foynes Port, Ireland, where a local chef, Joe Sheridan, was busy with regular restaurant matters as usual. He found out that a flight had to turn back midway due to unsuitable weather, and the passengers were coming to stay at the inn. Upon seeing the washed-up face of the weary passengers, he decided to whip up a drink that could calm their nerves and make the situation better.

The stroke of genius Joe Sheridan created became forever known as the first Irish Cream Coffee. He added whiskey, whipped cream, and some brown sugar to each cup to provide a soothing effect to the tired souls. Upon receiving an immaculate response from the passengers, he knew he had created something brilliant.

Soon after, the word spread around America, and many people tried recreating the recipe, including a motivated bartender named Jack Koeppler, who worked at Buena Vista Hotel in San Francisco. Jack tried several times to perfect the recipe, but the cream kept sinking to the bottom, ruining the drink. He then traveled to Foynes Port, Ireland, to meet the original magician, Joe Sheridan. From there, he managed to learn the correct recipe and bring it back to America, where it's a treat for everyone, especially on St. Patrick's Day.
