Ask a question about this stepThanks, EmilyC! Would love to hear back if you get around to trying it :)
Oh my, Lapadia, this sounds ridiculously good!
Thanks, gingerroot! Yes, this is smooth and will sneak up on you if not careful :)
Wow - this sounds amazing! I am not much of a punch drinker - but THIS I would definitely indulge in!!! Have you had it warm? With pie? After Thanksgiving dinner? (you see where I am going with this :-)
Thanks, aargersi! Yes, I see where you are going with this. It goes great with everything and at anytime of day...especially during the Holidays! I haven't this punch warm, but my husband says a shot is great in a hot cup of coffee, much like you would do with regular Irish Cream...talk about double the caffeine!! This recipe is tweaked off the Irish Cream recipe I have posted out here. I hope you try it, would love to hear back. :)
Best iced coffee drink EVER!
Love it!!
Thanks! thinking it could be great along side your Peppermint Chocolate punch for a variety :)
Oh yum is right! Definitley sounds like one of those restorative morning-after punches to get you back on your feet!
Oh yum is right. I really love coffee beverages and this is over the top. Love the chantilly cream. Do you use espresso or any type of coffee would be ok?
@ mrslarkin & sdebrango (the system is "glicthing") I can't reply to the bottom comment. So...Thanks to you both. LOL mrslarkin, I have a lot of coffee-addicted friends. @sdebrango you can use any type of coffee...and Irish whiskey. FYI - I only use decaf, and when I made this recipe I used espresso decaf...but I wouldn't do that to my addicted friends, they would get the real stuff :)
Thanks lapadia, I would definitely use the caffeine laden version and I think espresso would be wonderful in this is better than irish coffee and I love that.
oh yum! I am one of those coffee-addicted friends. move over, frappuccino!
