Irish Cream Liqueur Recipe

St. Patrick's Day is coming, and this year, instead of gorging yourself on green beer until you see leprechauns, maybe you should try to class things up a little bit. We've found a recipe for a Bailey's-style irish cream liqueur, so you can sip a little something nice over ice, instead of waking up behind some green dumpster somewhere.

Homemade (Bailey's-style) Irish Cream Liqueur

1 cup Irish whiskey
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups half & half
2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
1/2 teaspoon coconut extract

Place all of the ingredients in a blender and mix well.

You can drink it right away or store it in a pretty decanter in the refrigerator. The flavor improves every day!

Serve your homemade Irish Cream Liqueur over ice, add it to your coffee or pour it over a scoop of ice cream for dessert.
