Shake the cream before you pour it over the spoon. It floats easier with brown sugar in. |

To do a real irish coffee you need alcohol in the coffee and sugar.
You can do a floater with no alcohol, but sugar helps make the cream float, you need to pour the cream preferably double or whipping over the back of a spoon into the coffee.
Yes it can be done without sugar, but the cream will start to sink.

When I pour mine over a spoon it sinks ... every time ....and has done for years.
I use whipping cream ( never the squirty stuff that's disgusting ) whip the cream until thick - too thick - then put a really good full spoonfull on top of the boozy coffee.
It's a floater of cream that begins to liquify in the hot coffee but doesn't sink like unwhipped cream.
The air that you whip into the cream is what makes it float. Unwhipped cream is too heavy and needs a fully trained coffee maker or chef.
My way never fails and everyone goes....oooooooooo how do you do that I can't do it.
Try it. No sugar needed. |

"I tried lots of different ways and in the end was seeing 3 glasses so thought it was best to go to bed "
lol
The key is the bubbles in the cream, use double cream and shake it really well before you pour.
It can be done without sugar but you have more chance of it floating with sugar if you are as rubbish at it as you sound |
