How to make it

1. Brew your coffee and leave it to cool in the fridge for 2 hours (I’m going to assume at this point you know how to make good coffee, but if not, check out our brew tips here)
2. Add the hot water to the icing sugar and stir to a paste
3. Add the whisky and cold coffee
4. Top up with the double cream
5. Give it a shake or a decent stir (depending on what vessel you’re using to prepare) with some ice to chill
6. Pour through a sieve and straight into your glass
7. Share your #unioncocktails

What you'll need

40ml of brewed coffee (any will do…as long as it’s Union!)
25g of icing sugar
5ml of hot water (just off the boil)
25ml of Whisky (any will do, but best to stick to a blend. You can usually find a relative who’s received a bottle as a Christmas gift).
20ml of double cream
Ice
A shaker or something to prepare the drink
A strainer/sieve
A glass for serving (a tumbler works well)
