Are you ready to raise your glass and your coffee IQ? You're in the right place! We're serving up a not-so-Irish coffee in the first half of the episode - think of it as your traditional Irish coffee subbing whiskey for coffee liqueur. Our in-house mixologist, Neely, will walk you through how to craft this warm, frothy delight, perfect for after-dinner conversations. We also dip into the art of achieving pourable whipped cream consistency, an essential for aspiring coffee gurus.
But we're not stopping at crafting cocktails. We're journeying back in time to explore the intriguing history of coffee, and how our favourite brew barely survived religious condemnation to become a cherished morning ritual. We're diving into the role of the Boston Tea Party, the rise of iconic brands like Folger's and Starbucks, and the impressive current market value of the coffee industry in the US. So join us, Dawn and Neely, on this espresso-infused episode of A Glass and Sets, as we go beyond the beans and into a truly caffeinated adventure!
