Those other flavors are hints of vanilla, coffee, chocolate, and Almond. Yes, you read that right, ALMOND. Adding just a touch of almond extract takes this home recipe and makes it indistinguishable from the store bought version.

**Commonly asked questions**
Is making Irish Cream less expensive than buying it:
It depends on where you live! Where I live, a bottle of Bailey's is roughly $18-$20. Jameson is $20-$22. if you double this recipe and use the entire bottle of Jameson, you get TWO bottles of Irish Cream out of it. (Yay, math!) Or, don't double the recipe and be left with half a bottle of Jameson to enjoy on it's own (Yay, whiskey!) The rest of these ingredients are very inexpensive, and many people already have them in the fridge/pantry. Also, you don't HAVE to use Jameson- if you're making this purely for the cost savings, use the least expensive whiskey available to you.
How long will homemade irish cream last:
Up to two months in the refrigerator (and yes it needs to be refrigerated).
Can you make this without alcohol:
I'm sure you can, I just have not tried it personally. I think experimenting with some of the non-alcoholic whisky offerings would be fun, and lend the right amount of spice and texture to this!
Why bother making your own?
Because some of us enjoy the process! Homemade liqueurs are an easy way to control the level of alcohol, sugar, and various other ingredients. Have fun with this- tweak to suit your own tastes!!

I feel like I might be setting myself up to be dragged, but here goes...I don't drink any more. Even so, I still love the flavor of Bailey's (and Kahlua). Can I make this sans alcohol, or is it key to the consistency or something?
-
For people who don't know - you can buy caramel condensed milk. Which will probs make the drink most similar to original Baileys.
-
I just finished making this recipe and it is spot on! Baileys Over Ice is pretty much the only adult beverage that my wife will partake and she lit up when she tasted it.
-
Thanks for taking the time to create this video. You’re an excellent presenter.
-
As for the instant coffee granules, I usually dissolve it in the whiskey first thing. It works wonders just melting the granules.
-
Being Irish I can say this is the best recipe I've found. The almond extract nailed it!
-
Bailey’s here is over $28 a bottle, $56 large bottle. I’m so excited to try this recipe.
-
I have made Irish Cream every year for Christmas as gifts to friends. It's so simple and quick. I replaced the extract for Frangelico liqueur and it gives it a nice almondy flavour
-
Greetings from Ireland. That looks great, I'm going to try it for sure.
-
The first time, I watched the video out of curiosity. The second and third times, it was to make Irish cream myself. Well, the fourth and fifth times were just to see you enjoy the Irish cream. It's so much fun to watch. And now, after making it myself, I also understand why...
-
Thanks for this. On my to-do list. Cheers and merry Christmas 😊
-

This just solved my Christmas gift idea for next year. Thank you. I can't wait to try it.

A coworker gave us some homemade Irish Cream for Christmas last year. It was so good we asked for the recipe. Pretty much identical to yours. I actually like the taste of the homemade better. I made some and also use it on ice cream! Hoping for more this Christmas.

I have a feeling that she gives the best hugs. Any friends of her should be lucky to have her around. I tried this recipe works well.
