Here’s a simple recipe to make homemade Baileys Irish Cream:
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup Irish whiskey (like Jameson)
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules (optional, for a coffee flavor)
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder (optional, for a chocolate flavor)
Instructions
- Blend Ingredients: In a blender, combine the heavy cream, Irish whiskey, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, instant coffee granules, and cocoa powder (if using).
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend on medium speed until everything is well combined and smooth.
- Taste and Adjust: Taste the mixture and adjust the flavors to your liking, adding more coffee or cocoa powder if desired.
- Store: Pour the mixture into a clean bottle or jar and seal it tightly. Store it in the refrigerator.
- Shake Before Serving: Since it contains cream, give the bottle a good shake before serving. It should last for about 2 weeks in the fridge.
Enjoy!
You can enjoy your homemade Baileys over ice, in coffee, or as part of various cocktails. Cheers!
