St. Patrick’s Day is only a few days away and it’s time to prepare for the day. For many, it is a day of drinking and partying at the pubs for others who like to stay home you will need a tasty drink. One of my favourite drinks is Baileys Irish Cream since it goes well in many different drinks like this boozy Baileys shake. You can make this milkshake with Baileys for a single drink or make enough for a group.
Have you ever watched a movie or TV Show where the characters head off to an old fashion Soda Shop? It’s a place where you would see groups of teenagers hanging out or families out for a treat. There would be long counters or booths to sit in. Think about Happy Days if you are old enough or maybe Back to the Future. They had booths or long counters to sit at to have a soda milkshake or even a burger meal. They probably didn’t serve a Baileys milkshake, but you could get a chocolate, vanilla or strawberry shake.
How to make a milkshake thick
If you like your milkshakes thick, just add more ice cream. If it softens too much while preparing, just put it into the freezer for 5-10 minutes.
Baileys Drink Mixes
What mixes with Baileys? While you can mix Baileys with almost anything, you want to avoid any type of citrus as it may curdle the cream. Below you will find some flavourful ideas for mixing up:
- Coffee and Baileys
- Coffee Martini – just switch up the vermouth or vodka with Irish Cream
- Hot Chocolate
- Guinness
- Ice Cream
- Tea
Alone or mixed, Baileys Irish Cream milkshake is a delightful drink that many love. You can even make it a non-boozy drink by using Baileys Coffee cream found in the dairy section of the grocery store with other milk products. This is a milkshake with ice cream without it would be more of a frappe.
