Tips:

For the best flavor, use baby carrots, as they are sweeter and more tender than larger carrots.
If you don't have Irish whiskey, you can substitute another type of whiskey, such as bourbon or rye whiskey.
Be careful not to overcook the carrots, as they should still have a slight crunch to them.
If you want a sweeter glaze, add a tablespoon or two of honey or maple syrup to the pan.
Serve the carrots immediately, while they are still hot and glazed.

Conclusion:

These Irish Whiskey Carrots are a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The whiskey adds a unique flavor to the carrots, and the glaze gives them a beautiful shine. Whether you are serving them at a holiday dinner or a weeknight meal, these carrots are sure to be a hit.
