Method
Make the coffee as normal and put to one side for a couple of minutes.
Add four cubes of ice into a glass and stir once or twice with a long-handled spoon if you have one to help cool the glass. Add the hazelnut syrup and Irish whisky/extract, stir once more. Now the coffee is no longer boiling hot, add to the glass and mix.
Once the ice has dissolved, add the remaining four cubes of ice to keep cool
Whisk the heavy cream in a bowl until foamy, but not too thick. Let the cream drip down the whisk to form the top layer of the Irish coffee.
Sláinte!
