In the Middle Ages, a posset was a drink made of hot milk, wine or ale, sugar, and spices. Sometimes a beaten egg was added to make it even richer. This modern posset, named in honor of an ancient Irish hero, uses fresh orange juice and a dash of Irish whiskey. A nice complement is an Irish Lace Cookie.

RECIPE INGREDIENTS

Juice of 2 oranges

1/2 cup superfine sugar

1 3/4 cups heavy cream

Dash of Irish whiskey

Powdered sugar

Irish Lace Cookies

delicious and simple

This was so simple and quick it is amazing it was so good. I used tangelo juice from my own tree instead of organges. I used a full jigger of whisky. The mixture will be quite thin at the end, so use a ladle not a spoon to put it in your serving dishes/glasses (I used ramekins since I was transporting the result to a party). You can speed up the cooling and setting by putting it in the freezer for a short while. The accompanying lace cookies were also good, but a lot more difficult.
