How to make it

  1. Rinse a heat-safe mug with hot water to warm it, then empty it.

  3. Stir in 40 ml whisky.
  4. Whip 30 ml cream for 20 seconds until just thick. Pour it over the back of a spoon so it floats. Do not stir.
  5. Serve hot right away without stirring, sipping the coffee through the cream, with a biscuit on the side.
