This is one of my favorite drinks. I was first introduced to this Irish drink, by my friend Leah Nesbitt, way back when we were in culinary school together. I still think of her every time I drink one.

I thought this recipe had coffee in it. This is a common drink in San Francisco and I've always had it with coffee, The recipe clearly says there is none, I'm shocked, is this a mistake? -
Good question Brenda, since this particular cocktail doesn't contain coffee — though there are many similar versions that do — I have changed the name (to be honest, I am not sure why the word "coffee" was in the title in the first place — maybe I had had too many when I entered the recipe...ha ha!). Cheers! -
There is a drink called a "hot nutty irish". It does have coffee but also adds some amaretto. True "Irish" coffee combines whiskey and coffee as a stand alone. -
I know that this is 4yrs after the fact, but there's also an amazing hot coffee drink called a Nutty Irishman, one cup of coffee with equal pours of Bailey's Irish Cream and Frangelica, 1 to 1 1/2 ounce each, topped with fresh whipped cream... yummy! -
I made it with Jameson and Baileys pumkin spice sipping on it now and it tastes like eggnog with about 1oz james and 1/2 ish of baileys

This is my first comment and the first recipe I am trying out on Rouxbe as a new member! Glad to say I struck gold since both Baileys and Whiskey was in the liquor cupboard and I found an icetray after looking for it so this evening I am enjoying a Lucky Irishman. Cheers!
