It was about the Irish Coffee, actually. :)

While many coffee drinkers will search the internet and the Food Network for the best Irish Coffee Recipe. Here is the real story behind Irish Coffee, a few authentic recipes and a video of a bartender making an Irish Coffee.

Irish Coffee was created in the winter of 1943 by Joe Sheridan, chef at Foynes Port near Limerick, Ireland. Foynes had become one of the biggest civilian airports in Europe during World War ll and then an airbase for transatlantic flights that often carried political or Hollywood figures. The airbase was usually just a stop over for longer flights to refuel and often due to weather passengers would need to stay for the night and new restaurant was created to cater to these dignified passengers.
