When there's Ireland 🇮🇪 and drinking there's also us Aussies thanks Mr. Black 🇦🇺🍻

[@GabrielLerma1029]

ANDERS! Nothing feels better than getting to the "Ingredients" segment of your videos and realizing I actually have the booze to make the freaking cocktail :). I've had Mr. Black chillin in my fridge for a while now and just recently picked up some Powers to mix other drinks with = let's do this! Thanks for this video and I formally submit a request for 4K content! Anders, brother, your production is amazing...give us the pixels bro! :).

[@AndersErickson]

Thanks, Gabriel! Need to upgrade some gear first, but we'll get there. Hope you enjoy the cocktail! Cheers!

[@jondotdrinks6952]

I always thought it involved baileys :O thanks for the history lesson, ordering my mr black now cheers anders!

[@MrBlackSpirits]

Cheers!

[@PHILLYBOYPL]

The backstories for some of these drinks deserve their own Netflix specials, I swear - thanks for always coming with the deets, Anders! Love knowing the history of a drink before making it!

[@kylerobich]

I know there some podcasts that go over history of cocktails, pretty cool stories

[@nickiloll]

@@kylerobich omfg thank you for bringing this up!!! I’m new to all this but absolutely obsessed and i will dive right into those podcasts!

[@lesliebowles3649]

@@kylerobichsome are dead boring - BUT ! Not our Anders! Entertaining every time! Cheers

[@dimitarapostolov9788]

They use Tullamore Dew in the Buena Vista I believe. Since Powers is not available to me, I'll try it with the Dew ☕

[@FaerieDust]

I'm so intrigued by Mr Black - I love that it's less sweet, so I can boost the coffee flavour without adding a ton of sweetness. And I really want to make a tiramisu with it! I've got a bottle on the way, and yeah I'll probably try an Irish coffee with it... And an espresso martini. And a ton of other cocktails 😅

[@AndersErickson]

Excellent! Now I want tiramisu 🤔

[@nathandanaaldrich4724]

Try Cali-made BLACK HJERTE. Better than Mr. Black with A full French Press of PETE'S COFFEE in every bottle. Cali corn vodka base. Nice owner too. 🇮🇪

[@MrBlackSpirits]

Tiramisus with Mr Black are super tasty!

[@seotenin]

I love a good Irish coffee Had a layover in Shannon Ireland, so I had 2 of them,… 😂🍀☕️🍀😂

[@AndersErickson]

Would've made the same decision! ☕️ 🥃

[@CzboomstickYT]

Just found you recently and been enjoying the videos. Really appreciate the tip re using a shaker for the whipping cream! And the history parts are a great touch!

[@shawnkuhn4753]

Can't go wrong with a hot Irish coffee that warms the cockles of your soul!

[@AndersErickson]

No you cannot - Cheers!

[@TheWhiskeyNerd]

These look great! For my Irish coffees, I make a spiced stout sugar syrup using stout instead of water and simmering it with some cinnamon, cloves and star anise before adding the sugar. Makes it so much richer and perfect for a chilly day!

[@AndersErickson]

That sounds amazing! Cheers! 🥃

[@LALopezWei]

You have a recipe for that? That sounds awesome.

[@DJJESSEJ]

I’ve made this before with Guinness!!!

[@TheWhiskeyNerd]

@@LALopezWei yeah, I take a 330ml can of stout, add a cinnamon stick, a couple of cloves and a star anise pod. Boil that on a low heat until its reduces down to about 250ml and strain out the spices. then add about 200-250g of brown sugar, depending on how spicy you like it. I have a video on my channel if you want to check out my Irish coffee recipe.

[@JackSparrow-ve9hh]

Thanks for the recipe and the story!!!

[@David-mg8zu]

Cheers Anders, I was never a big fan of the original Irish coffee. This cold version might be a game changer. 😉

[@AndersErickson]

Worth a shot, David! It does drink more like a standard cocktail. I think you'll love it - Cheers!

[@als.2983]

Saw Irish Coffee and thought ... NO, Anders is gonna use Redbreast 12. Good to see Powers make its way into this classic. Good stuff. Anders once again practices what he preaches - drink what you like.

[@AndersErickson]

Exactly. Cheers! 🥃

[@colinoconnor1579]

heavy cream in the cocktail shaker #protip

[@ebenezervalvi1009]

Love the content, and love the varitions mentioned here. This episode *seemed* a bit sponsor heavy, which...well it is what it is. I don't mean an insult, we must all make a living, and your content has never suffered from sponsorship "weight". Just an observation is all. I will be picking up some Mr. Black, because a. I trust your recommendations (because they have all ways proven appropriate) and b. I want to support the channel! This is awesome content albiet being free. Just a note on the tone of sponsorship is all. A happy and supportive viewer here. Thanks for everything! Cheers!

[@AndersErickson]

Hey Ebenezer. Thanks for your input. We hate for that to happen. We always keep your (the viewer) best interests in mind, but it is a delicate balance indeed. We might not be able to make videos you love every time, but trust me when I say we are working our asses off for every single one, and always making improvements ✌️Cheers and happy mixing!

[@LoyaFrostwind]

I got an Irish root beer at BJ’s. It was SO yummy!

[@miksologia]

Never thought of a cold Irish Coffee. Have to give it a try in summer.

[@janicemeighan1847]

Great video. This Irish lass never thought to have it cold but I’ll definitely give it a try. Slainte 🍀

[@AndersErickson]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@seanh7585]

Mr black is awesome, a must buy. I always have another bottle of coffee liquor next to it in my bar: New Deal Distillery, it's just as quality but highlights the fruity and lighter notes of coffee compared to Mr Black's more roasty flavors. Together they make a complete coffee section of your bar.

[@rachelwilkosz]

Ahh yes, my first introduction to “hair of the dog.” Works like a charm and darn delicious.

[@AndersErickson]

Cheers to that! Dangerously good!

[@leebyrd1434]

Long years ago, I found myself in San Francisco. We looked up the Buena Vista and enjoyed my first ever Irish coffee. Loved it! Had two or three. Maybe it was the geography or the climate the time of day, or the people I was with, but I've never had a better cocktail. Thank you...

[@valhala73]

Amazing liqueur MR Black!!! What you just did is a variation on a White Russian... Great video!!1

[@zoman1]

I just made this for the first time, as a trial run before St. Paddy's Day. It is the best version I've ever had, by far. And relatively easy to boot! Normally I'll put some whiskey in my black coffee and be done. Not any more! Thanks Anders for the recipe. Sláinte!!

[@stefanherzog]

Have to try the cold Irish Whiskey version! In a way, it's a cousin of the White Russian: Irish Whiskey instead of Vodka, it also a reversed ratio of spirit to modifier.

[@ronniesuburban]

Love it! Quite efficient of you to drink the hot one while making the cold one ;) They both look great, too.

[@TheAllAroundG]

I drank so many of these on a trip to Ireland. Well that and when I got a really bad cold, all the bartenders kept making me hot whiskey, with cloves poked in the lemon wheel, life changing.

[@steverohren42]

Anders the ice Irish Cream coffee is brilliant. I would have never thought about making this. Of course, I need this drink in New Orleans from Mid-May to early October.

[@IamJustaSimpleMan]

"How do you like your coffee, sir?" "Irish!" 🇮🇪☕🥃

[@Smartisrules]

Bought all of the ingredients (accept the syrup which is easily made) and made one for me and my wife. Wow that was some tasty Irish Coffee. Can't wait to taste the cold one in the summer.

[@austinzavala7785]

Love your videos Anders, keep ‘em comin! Currently a college student and love watching these videos every Friday so I can feel somewhat classy before I go out and drink cheap beer and harsh liquors all night lol

[@johnr.5706]

Made your cold brew using Red Breast 12 year, absolutely delicious!

[@drath5679]

Love this recipe... man I need an Irish coffee right now

[@Shadowpixy]

Man. You and your snob coffee. “Irish.” You wouldn’t know Irish if it walked up and married you.

[@nathandjoe]

Love the channel Anders, thank you so much for the incredible work! I got into making cocktails during the pandemic and your videos have been a massive part of that, I've learned so much! I think knowing the history behind a cocktail adds to the experience and appreciation immeasurably. Please tell me that you are planning on releasing a book? [Insert the take my money meme of Fry from Futurama here]

[@TokyoBlue587]

I would love an Anders book too

[@fugu4163]

I love mr black coffee liquor since it is basically cold brew coffee elevated with vodka.

[@AndersErickson]

Agreed - an excellent liqueur! ☕️

[@JoshuaKA02]

Mr. Black is dangerously delicious. The guy knew what he was doing; it'll set any day right.

[@carl_busch]

Love Irish Coffee and LOVE Mr Black. Easy combo to make into something great.

[@AndersErickson]

A winning combination! ☕️🥃

[@brock2thelee]

In the original Foynes Port recipe they use brown sugar. This is how I make mine, it’s the best way imo.

[@timlarsen8198]

Nice use of Mr Black …which is delish!

[@rabonour]

Looks great. I wish Mr. Black made a decaf version for those of us for whom coffee hours and booze hours are mutually exclusive.

[@siobhancollins3259]

Maybe use decaf coffee? 😁

[@damienomen669]

I love your videos, please don't ever stop with the history of the drinks (I find it fascinating) or your into music. That music is yours now.

[@steverohren42]

I recently traveled to Scotland and Ireland. I was a big fan of Scotch until I had Irish whiskey. I had the best Irish Coffee at the Red Fox Inn, until I made your Irish Coffee. Thank you for Both recipes, I am a big fan of Ice Irish Coffee.

[@jonathansiders9779]

I find Irish smoother, perhaps as smooth as a nicely aged (12 yr ) single malt Scotch.

[@EricsRC]

I was actually going to my favorite liquor store tonight to get the stuff for your espresso martini! Now I gotta make this as well. Looking forward to your signature Bloody Mary;)

[@SRS6779]

Mr. Black is AWESOME! Love my espresso martinis with it. Will be making a cold Irish Coffee. 10% off?!! Guess its time for a restock!

[@MrBlackSpirits]

Cheers legend!

[@MilkyWay-yp7os]

The well anticipated Friday cocktail history lesson. Thanks for another awesome video!

[@AndersErickson]

Cheers! Enjoy the weekend!

[@georgeb7185]

My mums recipe was always 1tsp of Demerara sugar in the bottom of the glass, a double shot of Tia Maria coffee liqueur, fresh brewed coffee and double cream floated on the top…. Tastes like Christmas in our house! 🥰

[@PJ-Slots-Entertainment]

I made my first Irish Whiskey Coffee in about 20 years. I forgot how good this was and is. Was nice to see you using Mr. Black. I love it as well. No more Kahlua. Cheers!

[@PRDad]

Highlight of the week! Thanks for the recipies! Will try both this weekend!! Cheers to you and Az!

[@psavelli65]

Love the channel and love Irish coffee (a few trips to Ireland and playing 20+ years in an Irish pub band may have something to do with it) - I need to get some of the Mr. Black as well - one question - you are using Rich Demerara Syrup - I've been to Ireland 4 times - the place noted for Irish coffee is the Red Foxx pub at the 17th century recreation bog village on the way into The Ring of Kerry - watching them make it they added Raw (Demera Sugar) to hot water then topped with coffee - which seems like much the same thing - the molasses notes are what I think of. When I've had it made with super fine sugar it's missing something. My wife and I love iced coffee so I suspect we will be making that one a lot. Thanks!

[@criskity]

I remember Stanton Delaplane in the early 80s when I was a teen browsing through the newspaper in the mornings before going to school. He had a column in the San Francisco Chronicle.

[@Coasterdude02149]

Mmmmm, I just got my bar equipment yesterday., the movers finally came. Just mixed up the cold version….Yum! This is delicious. First time I had Mr. Black coffee liqueur too. I don’t ever want to go back to Kahlua again. This is really good! Thanks Anders! Cheers

[@WhyTom]

A great drink to make for brunch! Gonna make this tomorrow with the family, cheers!

[@loganclemons4961]

That’s really funny that you posted this because I have been messing around with a similar original drink I whipped up for St pat’s day. 2oz powers Irish whiskey, 1.5oz mr black, 0.5oz amaro averna, and 2dashes fee bros aztec chocolate bitters, and 2 dashes el guapo spiced cocoa bitters stirred in a big rock of ice. Then shake up 2 oz of heavy cream and float atop the drink. Express an orange peel and discard. Give it a try! Delicious!

[@EdwinLap]

I have yet to find a place other than San Francisco (Buena Vista) that makes a good Irish Coffee. Like you said I am a "Snob" when it come to making them and it's all about the real fresh cream. I grew up in Europe and we Bar Tended in a 5 Star Hotel. Brown Sugar in the bottom of an Irish Whiskey or Wine Glass, add Whiskey and dissolve using steam from an Expresso Machine, Then add good coffee (Sumatra) and then the cream. Take a cold stainless steel bowl and whip in the heavy cream. Takes a minute to perfect consistency. and add on top. Thanks for sharing.

[@TheSpiritoftheCocktail]

ANDERS!!!! I need to try this!!! I love Mr Black and I'm going in!!! I love the animations!!!!! CHEERS!!!!

[@AndersErickson]

Thanks, Tim!! Cheers to you my friend!!

[@sauce3140]

Interesting, you should try it with espresso instead of coffee, or a baby americano if you will 0.25 oz rich dem 1oz tullamore dew 2oz espresso 1oz hot water top with shaken heavy cream very similar obviously, but the espresso gives it a silky/rich characteristic that you simply can't get from plain black coffee.

[@Tsurlagol]

Nice! Have you ever played with the “Coffee n Cigarettes”? Not the coffee liqueur versions, but the Rye /Gran Classico / Abano versions. Might be my all time fave cocktail.

[@Christian-kl8dl]

Love your videos, but I don't like the style of the most recent ones very much. They just feel a little bit too rushed. Would be better, if you don't make so many fast cuts, and let the narration more time to breath. The improvisation and the raw parts (especially with Az) were the things which made your channel so special. Apart from that keep up your great work, and I'm looking forward to seeing many, many more cocktails from you!

[@anamikasarkar5132]

Hey Anders,love from Kolkata,Bengal... I'm not much of a fan of anyone,but you're an exception that I chose to make.. Would you be so kind as to brew a video for just Absinthe cocktails?

[@Phlucious]

I don’t know if you can get it in Chicago, but you have to try the Crater Lake hazelnut coffee liqueur. It is amazing. Best White Russians and Irish coffee I’ve ever had.

[@onlyasuggestion]

Theres a bar in dublin that does a "Belfast coffee", basically a cold brew irish coffee with poitín instead of whiskey and grated nutmeg garnish. It is divine, imo the flavours work together even better

[@gonzalozech]

You are my go-to barman Anders, most of my bar has grown following your recommendations. Unfortunately with each video I end up buying more bottles 😂

[@robifiser]

0:52 "But what if you don't want a Hot One?" *Sean Evans entered the chat.* Seriously tho, you'd make a great guest. And Sean's from Chicago, so there's that.

[@davidbilbey]

What's the polite way to handle the situation when you ask a bartender for an Irish coffee and they think it should include Bailey's, for some reason? This was not a dive bar, but a hip joint in our small city. I don't want to be rude, but I don't want the wrong drink either....

[@november9err]

ANDERS10 doesn't apply in Melbourne Australia

[@XoneiwillyX]

Too bad Mr. Black needs to produce and distribute their shit in order for people to buy it!!! Less money on advertisements and more on supply/capital would v helpful

[@transparentvanillaghost9625]

Hi! Could you do a bartender red-flags/green-flags video? I really like your content! Cheers from Norway!

[@nevermore9887]

Anders why do you call it a rich demerara syrup if its the traditional recipe? Shouldn't a 1 to 1.5 be a week syrup? Especially cause the origional is the only shelf stable one

[@petertrout7866]

Since this video is over a year old I know this is a long shot but I’ll ask my question anyway in hope somebody will answer it. When you poured the hot water in the glass was the glass tempered glass if not, do you use any tempered glass for your drinks regardless of the drink?

[@christopherwalker1753]

Looks delicious, unfortunately Mr. Black is not available in Michigan 😐

[@brightvalve]

Sips the hot one while he's making a cold one 😜 I'm watching this at 830am, drinking my morning coffee and it's making wish I had some cream in the fridge!!

[@jonathansiders9779]

Made me laugh too

[@tusharjamwal]

i see that the removal of the dislike count has completely subverted the people who even disliked videos actually made well with good information. this video has literally 0 dislikes and 1.4k likes right now

[@swtyree]

Thanks especially for the simple whipped cream method! Also, I recently made a hot Irish Coffee with the addition of a 1/4 oz of Benedictine after reading about it on Peter Suderman's Substack. Delicious!

[@AndersErickson]

That sounds incredible - Cheers!

[@natalysorenson7471]

Have you heard of a corn liquor known as Nixta? I bought some the other day, very tasty. Any recommendations on how to use it?

[@tgray0379]

I love this channel, but this video was so awesome from start to finish! I love whiskey, and I love coffee, I can't wait to try both versions of the Irish coffee!

[@findlayrankin9769]

Before I watch this video I work in a bar where the coffee machine is in the back of the bar in the room next to our glass wash room. Whenever I get an Irish coffee check on it messes with everything and I’ve grown to hate this drink simply because it’s an inconvenience for me at work. I want to know if anyone else has experienced this or something like this?

[@papishulo87]

Anders!! what do you mean with heavy cream, is it condensed milk? Or what brand or what kind is it..?

[@cobylyons4439]

What?! No Az tastings?

[@alistairjardine8265]

Now, I a truly jealous. Can't get mr. Black in Canada

[@TokyoBlue587]

My favorite drink! Must be because of my Irish heritage LOL

[@dearmas9068]

Got a bottle of Mr. Black, and can confirm. It is outstanding. Thanks for the 10% off, Anders

[@AndersErickson]

Cheers!! ☕️

[@MrBlackSpirits]

Great to hear!

[@daveywomack9042]

Anyone ever tried cremaet? It’s a Valencian coffee cocktail. Coffee sugar lemon juice and rum

[@jefftucker2563]

Where's Az?! Always enjoy hearing her comments :-)

[@monoelmono9476]

What percentage cream should be used!? I got some 10% but wonder if too light

[@KARVAPERC]

Hey Anders! Have you ever tried making the coffee liqueur yourself?

[@scottyl9074]

Where is Oz? No taste test?

[@GADonMc]

Need not whip the cream. Unwhipped, you get a better texture an better play between the cool, smooth cream and the hot, sweet coffee.

[@ChappysTikiBar]

looks amazing 🍀

[@shuichiakai2639]

Aaaaand I still don't know the name of your intro song 😂 always put me in such a happy mood, please help me 🙏

[@vincentboisvert5887]

Using a Hario V60? Anders, you truly are a man of culture.

[@JustMe-fz5uc]

Coffee sounds good. These sound good. I could see shaking the cold brew with coffee ice. That would be neat.

[@cadguy5959]

I like my coffee like I like my women..., hot and straight.

[@gabriellecarvalho2614]

trying this one for the first time today (already know it's good though, is just the first time trying to make it myself)

[@romandianmixology]

Its so sad that I cant get Mr. Black in Romania :(

[@Pseudonym-No3]

How strong should the hot coffee be? Stronger than if you’d drink it solo?

[@MrWhangdoodles]

Lovely and simple recipe! Thank you and great video as always Anders. These weekly uploads brighten my Friday. I'll substitute the Mr. Black with Kahlua. I like it sweeter.

[@AndersErickson]

Thanks, Joonha! A fun drink to kick off the weekend. Enjoy it, and cheers! 🥃

[@Vortex1988]

Isn't the cold brew one just really a white Irishman?

[@BeedeeEx]

This has finally moved me to go get some Mr Black. I can't say I've had a great Irish coffee before. I think the cold version would be more my style. I can't wait to try it out!

[@AndersErickson]

Hope you love it! Cheers!

[@leethemullet2963]

Try a protein shaker bottle for the heavy cream! Super heaps ez!

[@the37thagent31]

So good. I also add a half ounce of rivulets when I’m at home to get a pecan taste to it.
