Tips:
- Use the right ingredients: Use high-quality, low-carb ingredients for the best results. Ensure you have heavy cream with at least 35% fat content and a low-carb sweetener like stevia or monk fruit.
- Chill the mixture: Chilling the coffee mixture before adding the whipped cream helps it to set and thicken properly. This will give your Irish cream a smooth and creamy texture.
- Use a hand blender: A hand blender is the easiest way to froth the heavy cream. If you don't have a hand blender, you can also use a whisk, but it will take longer.
- Serve immediately: Low-carb Irish cream is best served immediately after it is made. However, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
