    Baileys Irish Cream might bring to mind a White Russian, Mudslide or THE MACKENZIE! This creamy Baileys drink includes amaretto and vodka making the perfect dessert cocktail.

    On a dark and misty night among friends…it was exclaimed – “Aubrey! Make me a cocktail!” And so I embarked, Chopped-style, to make a delicious cocktail out of what I could find in the house. Apparently, it was a hit! ❤️

    Why This Recipe Works

    • Is there anyone who doesn’t love Bailey’s Irish Cream?
    • You only need a few alcoholic spirits to make this cocktail, all of which are delicious and worth having on-hand for other cocktails.
    • You can make this with other alternative milks and nuts milks because the drink is just that awesome!

    What other types of milk can I use in this cocktail?

    Higher fat milks:

    • Heavy cream
    • Half and half
    • Whole

    Lower fat milks:

    • 2% milk
    • 1% milk
    • Fat free milk

    Nut milks such as:

    • Almond milk
    • Cashew milk
    • Macadamia milk

    Milk alternatives such as:

    • Coconut milk
    • Oat milk
    • Rice milk
    • Hemp milk
    • Pea milk
    • Quinoa milk

    Can you recommend a cocktail shaker set and bar accessories to start my own at home bar?

    Best cocktail shaker set that I use and love is the mixology bartender kit. It is affordable, comes with a stand for the bar tools and has most of the basics you will need, such as:

    • Martini Shaker (cocktail shaker)
    • Jigger
    • Strainer
    • Bar Mixer Spoon
    • Tongs, Bottle Opener

    If you are into making craft cocktails such as a Manhattan cocktail or Old Fashioned cocktail, this bitters set is awesome and has five different flavors (Citrus, Smoked Chili, Aromatic, Orange and Ginger).

    Other good bar accessories you might consider include:

    • Mixing Glasses
    • Bottle Opener
    • Wine Opener
    • Garnishing Tooks
    • Muddler
    • Citrus Juicer
    • Cocktail straws, stirs and picks
    • Ice Cube Trays & Ice Molds – these round and square silicon ice cube molds are super fun!
    • Ice Tools, Buckets or Beverage Tubs
    • Cutting Board

    What are the best Baileys Irish cream drink recipes?

    I must admit, it is hard to choose the best Baileys recipes because there are truly so many amazing ones! However, some of my favorites include a Baileys Mudslide, Bailey’s White Russian Recipe, Baileys Chocolate Martini, Bailey’s Martini (Baileys and Vodka), Baileys Chocolate Cherry and Baileys and Coke.

    How to Make this Recipe

    Ingredients

    • 1 Oz Vodka
    • 2 Oz Bailey’s Irish Cream Or any Irish cream of your choice
    • ¾ Oz Amaretto
    • 4 Oz Soy milk (sweetened)

    Instructions

    • Shake well with lots of ice and pour into martini glass – because that’s just sexy!
    • The above oz amounts are RATIOS. So for example, if the cap on your martini shaker is x-oz, you can use the ratio. It might make a little more or less. Whatever is easier for you!

    Other Delicious Cocktail Ideas and Boozy Treats:

    • Tres Leches Cocktail
    • Vodka Margarita
    • Rum Balls
    • White Chocolate Liqueur
    • Cherry Manhattan

      Best cocktail ever! Perfect for holidays, pre-dinner with apps, or as dessert. We made this at our Christmas dinner and it was a hit! I got a buzz going after only having one 😉
