Instructions to Make Homemade Irish Cream ~ this Do-It-Yourself Bailys Irish Cream is an ideal duplicate feline of one of my #1 mixers. It’s perilously scrumptious, and ludicrously simple to make. Get your #1 Irish bourbon and some great new cream… and get ready to be stunned.
Irish Cream has consistently been a top choice of mine, and this without any preparation rendition tastes far superior to the packaged stuff. However much I love the first, there is something slightly questionable about packaged cream. New fixings take this exemplary Irish alcohol to an unheard of level.
It’s right on the money, I wouldn’t transform it in any capacity, and I energetically suggest stirring up a clump for St Patrick’s Day. You can serve it on the rocks, in a White Russian, or in an after supper espresso. I like it straight up in small vintage heartfelt glasses. In the event that you have any plans that call for Irish Cream, utilize this all things considered.
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp instant coffee or instant espresso
- 1/2 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup Irish whiskey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Put a tablespoon of the cream in a bowl and add the espresso and cocoa powder. Mix these together until both powders are completely dissolved and there are no lumps.
- Add the rest of the cream, while stirring, or gently whisking.
- Add the whiskey, vanilla, and condensed milk and blend everything well. Note: alternatively you can put everything in a blender and blend briefly to combine. Don’t blend too long or you can risk whipping the cream.
- Pour the mixture into a bottle with a top, and refrigerate until needed.
- This will keep in the fridge for at least a couple of months, and probably longer, but I’m pretty sure you will polish it off before then 😉
notes and variations
- Lighten this up by using half and half instead of heavy cream.
- Add more espresso or more cocoa powder to change the flavor profile to your particular liking.
- For more DIY liqueurs try my ultra-rich pumpkin liqueur, or, my Nutella liqueur.
- For a lighter, fruitier experience, try homemade fruit liqueurs ~ these fresh fruit infused vodkas make great cocktail mixers.
