Directions
- Fill Ember Mug² with 4 ounces hot water and let sit for 2 minutes.
- Pour out water and add 1 teaspoon light brown sugar to mug.
- Pour 4 ounces hot coffee into mug and stir to dissolve sugar. Then, pour in 1 ½ ounces whiskey.
- In a separate bowl whisk 2 ounces of cream until soft peaks form (cream should be thick but still pourable). This can be done with an electric mixer or by hand.
- Top coffee with cream by gently pouring the whisked cream over the back of a warm spoon. This will form a thick layer on top of the coffee.
- Garnish with chocolate shavings.
