Make Your Own Baileys Irish Cream - Easy Homemade Recipe

Make Your Own Bailey's Irish Cream

• 1 teaspoon espresso coffee

• 2 teaspoons unsweetened natural cocoa powder

• 3/4 cup heavy cream

• 3/4 cup milk

• 1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk

• 1 tablespoon honey

• 1 to 1 1/2 cups Irish whiskey (I used Scotch whisky)

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional)

Step 1 - In a small bowl or cup, mix together instant coffee, cocoa powder, and 2 tablespoons of the  heavy cream until smooth. Using a conventional or hand-held immersion blender, combine the coffee cocoa mixture, remaining heavy cream, milk, sweetened condensed milk, honey, Irish whiskey, vanilla extract, and almond extract and blend on high for 20 to 30 seconds or whisk until thoroughly combined. Transfer to a container, seal tightly, and store in the refrigerator. For the best flavour, let chill at least overnight to allow the flavors to meld together. Shake well before using. This should keep for up to 2 months.
