St. Patrick’s Day is coming up, so we wanted to give our coffee-drinking community some libation inspiration. We don’t know where she originally got the recipe, but we’re calling this first one the Cold Brew Mar-Tina. Thanks Tina!

“Old Skool In The Movie Theater”
“My friend and I would go to the matinee,” said decaf drinker Marcella from New Mexico, “and we would Sneak Bailey’s Irish Cream in our purse into the theater and we would order a coffee from the concession area and drink Irish coffee while we watched our movie.” She continued. “I love Irish coffee but I don’t like to drink anymore, I miss drinking them. Nothing non-alcoholic ever tastes like the real thing, but I don’t think it’s so critical for Irish coffee.”
“Non Alcoholic Irish Coffee”
- ⅔ cup strong black coffee
- 2 teaspoons light brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon rum extract
- ½ cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 teaspoons cocoa powder, for garnish
- (Use rum extract as an alternative to alcohol while retaining the taste)
