The History of Irish coffee ☘️ Inspired by Joseph at Buena Vista in San Fransisco:
During the 1940s, Foynes Airport in Ireland was one of Europe’s biggest. It was the main airport for Flying Boats and regularly received passengers from the U.S., including Hollywood stars and important political figures.
A new restaurant was opened to cater to these guests.
Joe Sheridan, a young chef, was in charge of the restaurant. As the weather during this time of year can be cold and blistery, Joe decided to create a drink that would warm his guests up, and that drink is the famous Irish Coffee.
The story goes that when an American passenger first drank it he asked “Is this Brazilian coffee?” in which Joe replied “No, that’s Irish coffee”.
Irish Coffee became a huge success and an airport specialty. In 1952, after the war, Irish Coffee was introduced to the United States, by travel writer, Stanton Delaplane.
He brought it to the attention of Jack Koeppler, a bartender at the Buena Vista Hotel in San Francisco and persuaded him to recreate it.
The cream kept sinking when Koeppler tried to make the drink, so he traveled to the source, Chef Joe Sheridan in Limerick, Ireland to learn the correct way to make this delicious coffee.
Now, it’s one of the most famous coffee cocktails in the world, and definitely one of the most delicious!
