Irish Cream Drink Recipe

Celebrate St. Patrick's Day With A Delicious Baileys® Coffee Express

An Irish cream drink recipe that's perfect for St. Patrick's Day. Imagine the silky smooth taste of Baileys® blended with freshly perked coffee, brown sugar, and topped with rich whipping cream.

Nothing is more Irish than Baileys®, and this spirited dessert beverage is totally delicious. Try this St. Patrick's Day drink recipe today.

For those unfamiliar with Baileys®, it is 50% dairy-fresh cream mixed with the finest Irish whisky. The whisky alone preserves the cream and gives it its long shelf life, opened or unopened. An added unique blend of cocoa and vanilla compliments and completes the authentic Baileys® taste.

Baileys® Coffee Express

This modern-style recipe for St. Patrick's Day is adapted from an older beverage recipe.

Ingredients:

6 oz. hot freshly brewed coffee
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 oz. Irish whisky
1/2 oz. Baileys® Irish cream
Heavy cream (whipping cream)

Directions:

Pour the hot coffee into a 6 oz. mug. Add the brown sugar and stir being sure the sugar is completely dissolved. Pour the Irish whisky and the Irish cream into the mug and stir to combine. Float the heavy cream on the top.

To float the cream properly, hold a teaspoon upside down and gently pour the cream over the spoon onto the coffee. This will cause the cream to float on top of the coffee and there is no need to whip it.

Makes one serving.

Try this easy St. Patrick's Day drink recipe and enjoy a rich-tasting beverage with the unforgettable taste of Baileys®.
