Ingredients

  • 1 cup (235 ml) heavy cream or half & half
  • 1 can (14 oz.-395 ml) sweetened condensed milk
  • 3 tablespoons chocolate syrup
  • 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1⅔ cup (400 ml) Irish whiskey I used Jameson

Instructions

  • Place the cream, sweetened condensed milk, instant coffee granules, chocolate syrup, vanilla, and mix on low speed for 30 seconds.
  • Then add the whiskey with the blender going, at a very slow speed, and give it a whirl for a few more seconds.
  • Transfer the Baileys Irish cream into sterilized glass bottles with tight-fitting lids and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.
  • Shake well before use.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • Curdle - High speed will whip/curdle the mixture. We’re aiming at just combining the ingredients – use the blender at low speed.
    If it curdles, strain the liquid through a sieve, then scrape any excess off the top with a spoon.
