How do you drink Baileys?

[AintNobodyHereButUsChickens]

My grandma gave me a 1ltr bottle of Baileys for Christmas, I've never even tried it before but I'm going to give it a go! How do you drink it? Is it like a shot type thing like people would drink whiskey/brandy etc? Just pour a glass full and drink it like a boozy milkshake? Mix it with anything?

Definitely from a shoe.

This is the only way.

I like it in Hot Chocolate with a dash of rum too. Also poured over dry cake (pannatone is good).

Swig it straight from the bottle

Ice cubes water it down, big no from me.

I add a bit of milk. Weird I know.

In coffee- just use it like milk

Do not drink it like a vodka mudshake/bacardi breezer. You will get very very drunk and fall over and cry on people. It is stronger than those types of drink, more like a spirit.

Straight from the bottle with a straw. It's basically a milkshake, right?

I came to say exactly the same 😂

Just with ice but I also drink it with Aldi Creme Caramel liquer added, it's lovely

My dd likes it like that. She says you can taste the favour more and the alcohol less.

Nice on ice cream too

I chill in the fridge and then pour a large one with ice. I really gaxynone now....

In a coffee (instead of milk), on Christmas morning. That is all

*fancy one 🙄

@AlDanvers yes! That's exactly it actually. It's takes the edge off for me

I drink mine like this; measure of Bailey's, measure of toffee vodka and ice cubes made from really strong espresso. I can only manage a couple but bloody hell they're delicious

Came here to say ‘from a shoe’ but I see I’ve been beaten to it

I love it in hot chocolate or just over ice.

These adverts have been stalking me...

I love it in my coffee yum.

🤤

I start a new bottle at the beginning of December. Keep it in the fridge so it's cold. Therefore no need for ice - so it doesn't get diluted.

I use my special Bailey's glass (smaller than wine glass, larger than sherry glass).

One glass per evening, to feel nicely warm and mellow. Two if I've had a bad day. I don't recommend the straw method until you're really clear about how strong it is!

Then I don't buy another bottle till next year, so it's still new and exciting come the following December.

I may have put too much thought into this.

Nice!

Someone on here at Christmas recommended putting it on Vienetta! That was amazing. We like it in hot chocolate or coffee. Or just straight up- keep in freezer so it's ice cold

Over ice. Somethings with Cointreau, if you like chocolate orange. 🙂

It is nice over vanilla ice cream.
