Spiced brandy, orange liqueur and tea make for a warming British twist on Irish coffee

A good slug of spiced brandy, hot black tea and boozy orange cream: this festive winter cocktail twists the classic Irish coffee to create a very British drink that draws inspiration from my mum’s love of orange liqueur-spiked cream and a firm Yorkshire favourite – the cuppa.
