HOT IRISH WHISKEY
My best friend who just happens to be Irish made this drink for me one cold night in Chicago and since then, I have been hooked! Warning: it is very potent, just one of these will warm you up and basically make you good for nothing afterwards - what a treat! It is super to drink at night if you have a sore throat. My friend said this is what the Irish drink if they don't feel good but don't wait until you have a cold to try this recipe!

Steps:
- Press cloves into the peel of the lemon slice all the way around. Set aside. Measure the sugar into a wine glass. Place a metal spoon into the glass with the curved side facing upwards. Pour the boiling water over the back of the spoon. This will keep your wine glass from shattering. Stir to dissolve the sugar. Pour in the whiskey and add the lemon slice. Let steep for about 1 minute before drinking.

Tips:
- Use high-quality Irish whiskey for the best flavor. If you don't have Irish whiskey, you can substitute another type of whiskey, but the flavor will be different.
- Make sure the cream is very cold before whipping it. This will help it whip up quickly and smoothly.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a resealable plastic bag with the corner snipped off.
- Be careful not to overbeat the whipped cream. It should be stiff peaks, but not so stiff that it's grainy.
- Garnish the parfaits with additional whipped cream, chocolate curls, or chopped nuts, if desired.
Conclusion:
Irish whiskey parfaits are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit with your friends and family.
