What Drinks Can You Make With Bailey's Irish Cream?
Bailey's Irish Cream is a whiskey and cream-based liqueur made in Ireland. According to Bailey's, the drink is sold in about 180 countries. While it can be enjoyed on its own or over ice, Bailey's has become a popular mixer in creating other beverages, including shots and cocktails as well as hot and blended drinks.
Shots
-
From the French Toast and Girl Scout Cookie to the Gorilla Snot and Attitude Adjustment, there's a wide variety of shots you can make with Bailey's. For example, a Bumble Bee shot mixes one part of the Irish cream with one part Kahlua and one part sambuca. A Fat Cat shot turns two parts Bailey's, one part Amaretto almond liqueur and one part banana liqueur into a tasty drink. The Milky Way, Jam Doughnut and Peppermint Patty are a few other shooters that call for Bailey's.
Cocktails
-
Besides shots, there are a variety of Bailey's-based cocktails. A Screaming Orgasm, for example, calls for 1 oz. Bailey's Irish Cream, 1 oz. Galliano, 1/2 oz. Cointreau and Kahlua, and 1 oz. of double cream all mixed over ice in a cocktail shaker and served in a martini glass. A Matterhorn calls for 1 oz. Bailey's, 1 oz. of Kahlua and 1/2 oz. of Creme de Bananes. Fill a goblet with crushed ice and pour the three drinks over it in layers. Garnish with a chocolate stick.
Hot Drinks
-
While most alcoholic beverages are served cold, Bailey's can add some kick to hot drinks, too. Some people like to add Bailey's as a creamer in their coffee. Bailey's recommends making a Bailey's Hot Co-Co Bay drink. Use one part Bailey's, one part Captain Morgan Parrot Bay Coconut and one part hot chocolate. Prepare the hot chocolate as directed, pour it in a mug and mix in the alcohols. Serve with whipped cream.
Blended
-
Baileys Irish Cream can add some flavor to drinks mixed in a blender. A Mudslide creates a sweet treat with equal parts of Bailey's, Kahlua, vodka and double cream blended with ice and served in a highball glass. Throw some fruit into the mix and create a Bailey's Irish Cream Smoothie. Blend Bailey's, Kahlua, Advocaat, double cream and a diced banana together with ice. Serve with a strawberry and chocolate.
