I don't drink coffee normally. I never got into the Starbucks craze like so many people I know. But when I do enjoy a coffee on a cold Chicago day, a little Baileys and little Jameson always do the trick. This is probably my favorite "hot" cocktail. While I enjoy some of the other variations of the coffee cocktail, the Irish Coffee stands alone.
