Cocktail of the Week: Proper Irish Coffee

Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey recently celebrated National Coffee Day (9/29) and National First Responders Day (10/28) with Proper No. Twelve whiskey-infused doughnuts for a good cause.

The Irish Whiskey tapped Dough Doughnuts to create two donuts, The Proper Irish Coffee Cream-Filled and The Proper Irish Coffee Glazed. The former is a classic yeast doughnut filled with Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey-infused buttercream and a hint of vanilla and rolled in orange sugar.  The latter is a traditional yeast doughnut covered in a Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey-infused cold brew coffee glaze. Both doughnuts will be available at Dough through Oct. 28.

A portion of proceeds from all doughnut sales, like the whiskey itself, will benefit The Tunnel to Towers Foundation. And we can definitely raise an Irish Coffee to that.

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz Proper No. Twelve Whiskey
  • 4 oz hot coffee
  • 3/4 oz simple syrup
  • 2-3 oz heavy cream

Instructions:

In a shaker or jar, shake or whip heavy cream until slightly thickened (not completely stiff). In a mug, add whiskey, hot coffee, and simple syrup. Stir. Carefully layer on top the thickened heavy cream until it covers the drink. Optional grating of nutmeg on top.
