Homemade Baileys Recipe

by Sharon Rowley Leave a Comment

This homemade Baileys recipe is one you'll want to have on hand for the holidays! It is the perfect beverage to serve at family gatherings, or while decorating the Christmas tree, or while wrapping presents- the whole season long!

Here's a great new holiday tradition (for grown ups only, of course!). Whip up some homemade Baileys to sip while decorating the tree! Serve it over ice or even over scoops of ice cream!

I once had a girlfriend tell me about a holiday tradition in her family. Each year when it came time to decorate the Christmas tree, the grown-ups would mix together a little holiday cheer in a tall glass and sip it while stringing the lights, helping the kids hang ornaments, and adding the final touches of garland.

Holiday music would play in the background, and afterwards, they would turn out the lights in the room, leaving only the tree to twinkle, and watch one of the Christmas specials on TV. How picture perfect does that sound to you? It always sounded lovely to me!

Especially when she told me that the adult beverage they enjoyed was Baileys, served with the richest most decadent vanilla ice cream they could find! In her case, they would blend together the Baileys and ice cream and turn it into a shake, which they would savor through tall straws all evening long.

It's been years since she shared that tradition with me- but I have never forgotten it. And with this recipe for homemade Baileys- I decided it was time to give this tradition a try!

If you've never had Baileys before- think of it as a creamy, chocolatey, rich, yet boozy beverage. It should be served cold- over ice- or as I mentioned earlier…

Even over scoops of vanilla ice cream!

Don't blend it all together as my friend did- instead sip the Baileys through a straw and use a spoon to dip into the cold ice cream. Hang a few ornaments… take a few sips… throw a little tinsel… take a few sips…
