Black Irish

A two-ingredient nightcap that pairs the malty, slightly fruity backbone of Bushmills Black Bush with the sweet, roasted coffee and vanilla notes of Kahlúa. Poured over ice and finished with a maraschino cherry, it looks dark and inviting and drinks smooth, an easy, satisfying after-dinner sipper worth trying if you like coffee-forward whiskey cocktails.

  • 3 parts Bushmills® Black Bush Irish Whiskey
  • 1 part Kahlúa® Coffee Liqueur
