Vegan Baileys Irish Cream
This one’s for you, Molly.
Last night I was enjoying a glass of Bailey’s on the rocks and thought to myself, “It’s too bad that this isn’t vegan. I wonder if there are any recipes online to make a vegan equivalent…”
And, of course, thanks to the magic of the internets, I found a way to make it!
At SuperVegan I found a discussion about “Vegan substitute for Bailey’s Irish Creme.”
Here it is, copy-and-pasted (in case SuperVegan ever disappears):
Ingredients:
——————————————————1 can coconut milk
2 tbs brown sugar
2 tbs chocolate syrup
2 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup whisky (or to taste!) I suggest Jameson’s.Instructions:
——————————————————Combine all ingredients thoroughly using a whisk, but do not froth. Keep
refrigerated, preferably in a dark bottle. Old ‘Bailey’s’ bottles are ideal!Note:
If your coconut has separated into solid and liquid, be sure to mix or blend thoroughly first into a completely smooth liquid with no lumps.
I haven’t tried it yet, but when I do, I’ll report back!

This is great, Jason. I will give it a try and let you know how it goes.

i just tried it and it’s a bit too whiskey-ee for my taste.
i wonder what other mint-y liquors might work? peppermint schnapps or creme de menthe?
