Irish cream

[wendilla]

I used to have a recipe for Irish Cream similiar to Bailleys but can't find it .Has anyone got a simple recipe ? Thanks

Tesco sold this up to a few months ago but I don't have a Tesco store nearby now. I used to buy it and yes, it is nice & similar to Baileys. I'll have a look in Asda on Wednesday when I go in there and report back if I find it.

Hi thanks for your reply but it is the recipe I want to make it .I know there are recipes on here but I had a very simple one that someone gave me from here.

Yes thanks I looked at that one but there is a another one that does not require the chocolate syrup and almond extract but I can't remember what the other ingrediends were but it was very easy and simple to make .Thanks for your reply.

This one looks quite simple to make, worth a look!

[wendilla]

Yes thank you that is as near to the one I used to do in fact better as it keeps up to a momth but I don't think it will last that long.

wendilla, i used to have a similar recipe too and it tasted exactly like bailleys. i'm pretty sure it's the one in the link from welsh.

[wendilla]

Yes ethandron but I dont remember using chocolate.I can see my recipe written in a notebook and I can't find the bxxxxy notebook so annoying but I will try one out from here thanks

wendilla when you making this,if its good give us some feedback thanks!!!

[wendilla]

ok will,do. Going Asda tomorrow to get the milk so will get back to you friday at the latest

[wendilla]

This seems to be as near to the recipe I had .Have just made it but minus the cacao essence and is ok. ingredients:
4 ounces sugar dissolved
2 1/2 ounces water
8 ounces whiskey
5 ounces small tin Ideal (evaporated) milk
5 ounces single (thin) cream (fresh, not tinned)
10 milliliters Cacao essence (I use Tbsp. Noirot, available from Homebrew shops). (DID NOT ADD THIS )


Turn this recipe into a puzzle! [click]


Directions:

This is a good recipe for Bailey's equivalent. If you can't get the Cacoa Essence try it without - it's almost as good!

Dissolve sugar in water and bring to boil. Do not overboil. Cool. Mix all ingredients together and put in refrigerator for 2 hours. It's then OK to drink. Keep in refrigerator due to cream content.

This sounds lovely Wendilla? Any chance you can pop some round to my house tomorrow? Puddicat's making fudge, awesome combo!

[wendilla]

Well if puddicats making fudge I will bring the Irish cream and you can get some wine lol.

[welshlibranr]

Well, I am going to make the recipe I suggeted in my earlier post tomorrow, and will let you all know how it turns out, I think it should be scrummy!!

[wendilla]

yes Welshlibranr nothing wrong with your recipe it was just that I know I never used chocolate but I will try it without the choc as I think it will make more.

Just a quick update, I made the Irish Cream (link in my earlier post) on Thursday, I was amazed to find that it made nearly 3 litres,if I'd realised I would have made half the quantity, had to rush off and get more bottles, well worth it though, it's absolutely gorgeous! just had a little taste last night, so much better than Baileys!....................welsh
