1st December: 300 Ingredients for Advent

We're back, with our advent blog! After some deliberating, we opted for the title "300 Ingredients for Advent", with a mind to upload pictures of items we associate with our Christmas.


For the 1st December, our "ingredient" is Irish coffee. We only have Irish coffee at this time of the year, so it tastes and smells of Christmas. If you'd like to try your own...

* Mix 1 shot of whiskey (today I used non alcoholic whisky) with 1 teaspoon of brown sugar.

* Brew some coffee. While it's brewing, whisk some thick double cream until it stiffens.

* Leave the metal spoon in the glass while you pour hot coffee in. This should stop the glass from cracking. Pour the coffee, leaving a gap at the top.

* Spoon the cream on top, but don't mix it in. There should be a distinct line between the coffee and the cream.

* Sit back by the fireside, and enjoy!!
