Now, you don’t have anything to worry about, how could you? when you have this creamy liquor on hand. It is Simple, Sweet and Sensational and you can make it at home.

Homemade Irish Cream

Everyone that has tasted this homemade version, prefer it to  store-bought Baileys Irish Cream.

AND you can customize it to suit YOU!

Homemade Irish Cream

Spice it up with nutmeg, cinnamon and/or allspice. Or Jazz it up with mint . You decide.

So I am going to keep it short and sweet, before I start rambling. I couldn’t help but drink a little bit too much– What can I say? It is a time of Celebration .

There are a couple of things to keep in mind when making this drink.

I have tried Jameson liquor but do prefer rum whiskey. It’s my favorite and I love rum flavor. For an authentic Irish Cream flavor, you might want to use any Irish liquor like Jameson Whiskey.

I have adapted the flavor to suit my taste buds. By all means do the same.

Happy Holidays!!!!!

    I have made this with brandy before. I lost my previous recipe, was absolutely delicious. Fit to make it again.

    Please what is mint extract is it the natural mint leaf? And also what kind of milk should I use for it? Lastly am I to mix vanilla extract together with other extract?

    Reply

    • ImmaculateBites says

      Yes, mint extract is made out of mint leaf. For this recipe you use whole fresh milk- I think canned milk would work also.

      In response to your other question, yes you mix all the extract together. You really don’t have to use mint for this recipe – it’s optional

    If you use the mint extract donyou leave out one of the other flavors? Or add the mint with the almond and vanilla?

    I never tried Bailey’s Irish Cream, nor can I get it in my country, but it sounds like something my sister would really like. Sweet and boozy!
    I on the other hand don’t really like a strong liquor taste, most tiramisù is already too boozy for me (I feel like a party pooper but it’s my tastebuds not me…).
    Good thing I can suit this recipe to my teatotallish needs!

      Sorry . Don’t have any suggestions . Maybe someone would. Your best bet is to ask around – starting with the Largest supermarket around your neighborhood.

    Hi Immaculate. I am a little confused.is Bailey’s part of the ingredients. the bullet point before
    (Baileys Irish Cream – Adapted from All Recipes )
    seems like I shd get the recipe from all recipes then add the rest of the ingredients.

      Naa, sorry for the confusion….You do not need baileys cream. All you do is add all the ingredients listed then blend. Hopes this sheds some clarity.
