Add sugar (preferably brown) to strong hot black coffee and stir until sugar is fully dissolved. Add Irish whiskey. Leave enough space in the glass to add the cream. Carefully "float" the cream on to the coffee by using the back of a spoon. Do not stir. Sip the coffee through the cool cream to truly enjoy this classic.
Whipped cream is a delicious substitute for the cream.
