Two twists set this version of the classic warming drink apart-maple syrup acts as the sweetener, and a touch of cocoa powder brings out the flavor of the coffee.

Time 10m

Yield Makes 2 mugs

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 cup strong-brewed coffee
2 ounces Irish whiskey, such as Jameson
1 teaspoon Dutch-process cocoa powder, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Whisk cream with vanilla and 1 tablespoon maple syrup just until silken and very soft peaks form. In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk together coffee, whiskey, cocoa, and remaining 1 tablespoon maple syrup. Cook until scalding and bubbles appear along edge of pan (do not let boil). Remove from heat. Whisk in 2 tablespoons cream mixture. Divide evenly between two mugs. Top with remaining cream mixture, sprinkle with cocoa, and serve immediately.
