AIBU to think it's ok to drink Bailey's that expired 1 year ago??

[PisforPeter]

The bottle is unopened.
I was pregnant last Christmas hence it's still in the cupboard

[LuckySantangelo1]

Open it & pour some out. smell it, look at it. If it's off you'll be able to tell.

[BuntyFigglesworthSpiffington]

Check the texture. Curdled Bailey's doesn't sound too appealing.

[RatHammock]

It's probably fine. If it looks and smells alright, bottoms up!

Isn't it a little early in the day though?

[orangepudding]

If it hasn't curdled it may be fine.

[kali110]

I prob wouldn't because of the milk/cream but i know others would

[steppemum]

no, definitely not. In fact I'll come and take the bottle away for you.

agree with others, it should be fine, alcohol is a preservative

[BertieBotts]

It'll be fine. They keep for months/years so I doubt it will curdle just after a few extra months.

[BorpBorpBorp]

If it's bad, you'll know it, as it will have curdled. It'll probably be fine, but might not last as long as usual once opened. Keep it in the fridge once you've opened it.

[Hastalapasta]

No curdling then you are good to go! Please report back when you have opened it

[Mamabear14]

I would if it's unopened. I am debating drinking an opened bottle of tia Maria that's been open around 2 years. I had one drink out of it then found out I was pregnant!

If it looks and smells ok... (Which I'm sure it will) I would

[StarOnTheTree]

I've been drinking from the same bottle of baileys for years I know total lightweight here so I always give it the sniff test each December as I only drink it near xmas. No idea what the expiry date is but it's always been fine.

[BarbaraofSeville]

Sounds like Star might be like me. I had a bottle on the go for years - it was about 5 years out of date when I finished it and it was fine. It even survived a house move, which is how I know how old it is - I remember looking at it and thinking 'I'm sure we opened that in the old house' which was several years previously.

[LetitiaCropleysCookbook]

As pps have advised - rely on your sense of smell and taste buds. Give it a good shake first. I'm sure it'll be fine. Enjoy!

[Mummyshortlegz]

www.baileys.com/en-us/product_company_information.html It's only after two years open or not that it might not be as tasty.

[Raines100]

I had a bubble bath and a glass of Bailey's from a bottle that had been OPEN a year. It tasted lovely, and I was fine

[liz70]

at people who can make a bottle of Baileys last for years!

[BuntyFigglesworthSpiffington]

I love the idea of a years old bottle of Bailey's. Only being dusted off for the death of a monarch or the birth of a child and then solemnly placed back in the cupboard.

[StarOnTheTree]

I know liz Every year one of New Year's resolutions is to drink more but it never happens

[Ratonastick]

Bitter, nauseating experience tells me that it will be absolutely crystal clear if you pour a glass of off Baileys. The smell will linger for a while too.

In fairness, I think it had been open for a few years and was at the back of the cupboard where only the desperate venture......

[PisforPeter]

Ha ha, thank you folks
