Why Make This

It’s easy. You need just three ingredients that are all items you can keep on hand. No need for a cocktail shaker!

It’s fun. A Bailey’s Iced Coffee is a fun alternative to the regular evening espresso.

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need:

coffee – You can use cold brew concentrate or freshly brewed coffee. Brew coffee far enough in advance that you have time to chill it. You can use regular or decaf.

ice – You can use regular ice or frozen coffee cubes to keep the Bailey’s Iced Coffee cold. Frozen milk cubes as well as frozen almond milk cubes are a good addition as well since they won’t dilute the flavors like regular ice cubes will.

Irish cream – This liqueur is made of cream, sugar, whisky, coffee, and cocoa. Bailey’s Original Irish Cream is commonly available in the US, but there are other brands you can use instead. Or you can make your own.

Shopping tip: if you don’t often purchase Irish cream, it may not be cost effective to buy the regular size bottle and use it up before it’s best by date. Consider purchasing Bailey’s Minis for convenience without the waste.

Optional toppings – If you like you can add vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, and chocolate shavings.

Instructions

Fill a glass with ice. Add coffee to the glass. Top it off with Irish cream to taste. Serve immediately.
