Homemade Baileys Irish Cream Liqueur Cocktail

Time

  • Prep time: 15 Minutes
  • Total time: 15 Minutes

Key Ingredients Needed

  • 1 1/3 cup Irish Whiskey. I like to use Jameson, but feel free to use your favorite brand of Irish whiskey!
  • 1 1/3 cup Half and half cream
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk. Provides an extra thickness and sweetens up your drink.
  • 5 tablespoons cold brew coffee or espresso shots
  • 3 tablespoons chocolate sauce. Hershey’s is one of the best you can find, but feel free to use your favorite, or even make chocolate sauce from scratch.

Instructions/Step By Step Directions

Step 1: Mix all ingredients in a tall pitcher, or a bowl.

Step 2: Stir or shake together, but do not mix with a blender.

Step 3: Serve over ice or use in cocktails.

Step 4: Keep refrigerated after mixing.

Step 5: Store for up to 2 weeks.

Notes/Tips

  • If you find your homemade Baileys curdling, try mixing all of the other ingredients before adding the whiskey. Be sure to add it slowly.
  • Your Irish Cream will last for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
