Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t Irish Coffee exactly 1.27 coffees?

it may be

but the usability is about being common

if everyone (or almost everyone) used it, it would be useful

tho, I still like metric better because it matches our base

but if ppl around you use irish to mean *1.27, go for it

When I make an Irish coffee, that’s definetly not what makes it Irish. Though by coincidence it does end up 1.27 times the size of a regular one, on account of the additives.

No, “irish coffee” is coffee with alcohol in it. At least where I am from.

Well, yeah. In Ireland it’s just coffee.

Would “irish beer” be beer with a small serving of coffee on top?
