Do you have a content filter?

It has a recipe of an alcoholic beverage.

ohhhh i looooved baileys. what a perfect question because just recently i found a recipe for this!

here it is:

1 can of light coconut milk
about 1/2 can of Irish whiskey
1 scant shot of espresso
chocolate syrup and soy creamer to taste.

chocolate syrup recipe:
4 tablespoons cocoa powder
6 tablespoons raw sugar
8 tablespoons water

whisk together in a saucepan over medium heat until smooth. Finish it off with a shot of soy creamer to make it creamy.

I think it is just my computer deciding it doesn't like links today. *pokes laptop* ;)

xwitchymagicx is the only one allowed to miss baileys without it being sad - it is a drink designed for underage girls :p

That said, i used to quite like it too. :(

I'm sceptical of it working well with coconut milk, although i'd like to hear from anyone whose tried making any of these recipes and found it as good as the original :)

well actually, the person i found the recipe from said it worked really well with coconut milk :D she said her boyfriend was a bartender and came up with this as a vegan alternative.

regular in the UK isn't always the same as regular in the US/Canada :)

someone drinking a regular south australian pint in a uk pub would get laughed at

Can I make it alcohol-free? Or would it not taste the same?

well the taste comes from the alcohol...but possibly if u can ffind something fiery like it then it may work...and besides, it'll taste different, but it still may be really yummy...

You could maybe try an extract instead of the alcohol to taste? I don't know how this would taste, but I know you can buy rum extract at the very least.

Well, I just tried it out.

I hafta say it's pretty sick (http://hopchat.fire-chains.com/vomit.gif) and I'm glad I made half the amount and only wasted 10cl of whisky on it not the full 20cl.

Does Baileys even have chocolate syrup in it? As suspected the coconut flavour comes through too strong and doesn't taste right. The coconut and alcohol aftertaste is like malibu, with sweet chocolate syrup in it.

I've seen several vegan recipes online based around these ingrediants, with the wording slightly changed.

I can see what the recipe creator is trying to get at - baileys is basically whisky, cream and flavourings. But coconut milk is really not a good direct replacement for dairy cream.

wierd. i never noticed coconut milk having that much of a flavour, especially light coconut milk.

BUT, i bet the recipe WOULD work with soy screamer instead of soy milk as it tastes like cream right? u should try that mr flibble! :D

were on the verge of finding a vegan baileys!!!
