Cream is the fattiest part of milk, separated and sold in several styles defined by fat content: from light or single cream, around 18%, to whipping cream, around 35%, up to heavy or double cream. It tastes sweet and milky and has a velvety texture. Cocktails usually call for fresh whipping cream, shaken with ice in drinks such as the Alexander, or lightly whipped and floated on top of an Irish Coffee.
