Cafe Ireland: Irish Whiskey Cocktail

Stoa Cafe Ireland Imbibe 75

A simple but robust whiskey sipper.

Likening this cocktail to a dry Irish whiskey Manhattan, Yanni Kehagiaras notes that the drink
should be stirred very briefly with ice. “It’s about retaining the texture and viscosity,” says Kehagiaras, co-owner of Stoa in San Francisco, one of this year’s Imbibe 75 Places to Watch. “Just a brief chill and it’s good.”

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 oz. Irish whiskey (Stoa uses Powers)
  • 1/2 oz. dry vermouth (such as Dolin)
  • 1/2 oz. coffee liqueur (Stoa uses St. George Spirits NOLA Coffee Liqueur)
  • Tools:barspoon, strainer
  • Glass:rocks

Preparation

Combine all of the ingredients with ice and stir very briefly, only for 5 seconds or so. Strain into the glass and serve.
