Vegan Irish Cream


I veganized this from a recipe that my sister gave me years ago. As far as I can tell, it tastes exactly like Bailey's. If Irish Whiskey isn't handy, Canadian Whiskey would make a good substitute, but not Scotch. The versions that contain eggs are supposed to keep for a month, so this should last at least as long. I'm probably going to freeze some of mine, though. This is excellent straight, but I like it even better as a 747.

Vegan Irish Cream

3/4 cup sugar
1 cup soy milk powder (I used Better Than Milk)
2 teaspoons cocoa powder
2 teaspoons instant coffee granules (I used decaf)
1 cup boiling water
1 cup coconut milk (shake the can before opening)
1 3/4 cup Irish Whiskey (I used Jameson's)

In a blender, combine sugar, soy milk powder, cocoa powder and coffee with the boiling water until smooth. Add coconut milk and whiskey and blend.

Makes about a quart.

  3. I had to bookmark this so I can find it when I make it next weekend. I have hated for years that Bailey's isn't vegan so I used to love it so much.
