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!!!!!

      Yes, you can just. I love coffee, but it seems that Bailey’s original version didn’t have it, so I don’t see why you couldn’t leave it out.

    I made this for several family members and gave it to them for Christmas. Now I’m making more because they prefer it over Bailey’s !

        Thanks for sharing your talents and educating people for free. God will bless you for that. Keep it up darling. Cookery is one of my hobbies, and am not tired of learning. I have been producing this drink for my family and expecially when hosting. It is economical.
