The Belfast Coffee is the house drink at the home of Craft Cocktails - Bar 1661. When a drink outsells the Guinness, you know you are on to a good thing. Adapted from Ireland’s most famous mixed drink, the Irish Coffee, we give it a twist using cold brew coffee, premium Irish Poitín and rich demerara syrup. Served chilled and layered with double cream and fresh nutmeg, this is a drink to rival both its hot counterpart and the beloved espresso martini. Earthy, luxurious and bitter sweet, this is the next classic Irish cocktail.
Based on a cocktail created by Bán Poitín, London, circa 2015.
Note: The Belfast Coffee is a Craft Cocktails online exclusive. Unlike our cocktails available for retail which are good for 6 months, this cocktail has a 4 week shelf life and should be enjoyed soon after purchase. The best before date can be checked on the side of the bottle.
