Ingredients

Scale

Baileys Irish Cream Ingredients

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 2/3 cups Jameson Whiskey


Instructions

  1. Combine Cream and Sweetened Milk: In a blender, add the heavy whipping cream, sweetened condensed milk, chocolate syrup, instant coffee granules, and vanilla extract to prepare the base mixture.
  2. Pulse to Mix: Pulse the blender only a few times to lightly mix the ingredients together. Avoid pulsing too fast or too long to prevent overmixing or incorporation of too much air.
  3. Add Whiskey: Pour the Jameson Whiskey into the blender and pulse a few more times gently. This ensures the whiskey is well incorporated without causing the mixture to curdle.
  4. Transfer and Store: Pour the blended mixture into glass bottles that seal tightly. Store the homemade Baileys Irish Cream in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Shake gently before use.

Notes

  • This recipe requires no cooking, making it quick and easy to prepare.
  • Store Baileys in the refrigerator and consume within 2 weeks for best freshness.
  • Use glass bottles that seal tightly to maintain flavor and prevent spoilage.
  • Adjust the amount of whiskey to preferred alcohol level, but be cautious as too much can curdle the mixture.
  • Serve chilled, over ice, or use in coffee and desserts.
