Forget green beer—this year, we’re celebrating St. Patrick’s Day with a rich, creamy, and oh-so-smooth Irish Cream Coffee! Brewed with Crazy Cups Irish Cream Coffee, this cozy drink is topped with a cloud of whipped cream and festive green sprinkles for a touch of luck in every sip. Served hot in a glass pint glass, it’s the perfect way to raise a toast to the Emerald Isle!

Prep Time & Difficulty:

  • Prep Time: 5 minutes

  • Difficulty: Easy

  • Calories: 80-200 calories (varies based on milk and whipped cream used)

Ingredients:

  • 1 Crazy Cups Irish Cream Coffee pod, brewed (minimum 6 oz)

  • ½ cup steamed milk (dairy or non-dairy alternative like oat or almond milk)

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup (or sweetener of choice)

  • Whipped cream, for topping

  • Green sprinkles, for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Brew your coffee: Using a Crazy Cups Irish Cream Coffee pod, brew at least 6 oz of hot coffee directly into a glass pint glass for a festive presentation.

  2. Steam the milk: Heat your milk of choice until warm and frothy. If you don’t have a frother, simply heat it on the stovetop or microwave and whisk until foamy.

  3. Sweeten and flavor: Stir in the vanilla extract and maple syrup for a touch of warmth and sweetness.

  4. Pour and mix: Slowly pour the steamed milk into the coffee, stirring gently to combine.

  5. Top it off: Add a generous swirl of whipped cream and sprinkle with festive green sprinkles for that St. Patty’s magic!

  6. Sip & enjoy! Raise your pint glass and toast to a deliciously cozy St. Patrick’s Day. ☘️☕

Tips & Variations:

  • Make it dairy-free: Use oat, almond, or coconut milk for a creamy, non-dairy version.

  • Boozy twist: Add a splash of Irish whiskey or coffee liqueur for an adult-friendly version.

  • Extra frothy: Use a milk frother for a café-style foam finish.

  • Sweeter touch: Swap maple syrup for honey or brown sugar for a different flavor twist.

  • Cold version: Brew over ice and top with cold foam instead of steamed milk for an iced take!
