Irish Cream Liqueur

Wishing you all a blessed, peaceful and Happy 2012!!! 


We love Irish Cream Liqueur and when I saw this recipe few days back I thought of making it for New Year. It has all the things we love....condensed milk, cream, chocolate & alcohol..... Believe me it was one of the best drinks I have made recently... So here I am ringing in the New Year 2012 with Irish Cream Liqueur....


Irish Cream Liqueur
(Recipe Source: All Recipes)
Makes approximately  4 ½ cups or 1 liter 
Ingredients:
1½ cups / 375ml Irish whiskey / Brandy / Rum / Scotch (I used brandy)
125 gm milk chocolate
1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12 oz) can evaporated milk
1¼ cups / 295 ml heavy cream
1/8 tsp Instant coffee granules
Method:
  • Pour a small amount of whiskey / brandy into a large bowl.
  • In the top of a double boiler, melt chocolate, stirring constantly until smooth.
  • Mix the melted chocolate with the whiskey in the bowl.
  • Gradually stir in the sweetened condensed milk and the evaporated milk.
  • Stir in the cream, instant coffee granules, and the remaining whiskey.
  • Strain and pour mixture into a bottle, seal and store in refrigerator.
  • For the best flavor, chill at least overnight to allow the flavors to meld together.
  • To serve: shake bottle well, serve in small glasses over crushed ice.
  • This can be stored in refrigerator up to 1 month.

    1. Yes you can... to get 1 cup evaporated milk mix 2/3 cup of milk powder with 3/4 cup water.
