Alcohol-free Irish Coffee

Irish Coffee was created in 1943, during the Second World War, at the O'Regan restaurant-bar. Located at the former Foynes flying boat terminal in Ireland, from which the first transatlantic flights departed and arrived. The passengers, mostly military personnel, were tired and frozen, and wanted something warm and invigorating to drink. The hot coffee and the aromas of whisky combined perfectly. The cream was added to cool the drink so that it could be sipped quickly.

Enjoy this indulgence without moderation with our alcohol-free version of the Irish Coffee.
