Tips

If you’re looking for a stronger coffee flavor, use a darker roast or espresso instead of regular coffee.

If you don’t have Irish cream syrup, you can use a combination of vanilla syrup and Irish whiskey instead.

For an extra decadent treat, drizzle some chocolate syrup on top of the whipped cream.

Experiment with different types of milk and cream to find your perfect creamy texture.

Don’t let the milk mixture boil, as it can curdle and ruin the texture of the drink.

Store any leftover Irish cream syrup in the refrigerator for up to a month.
