The homemade Baileys turned out so delicious, that after making the first batch with my mom, I also made another attempt at Baileys with my aunt, using a different, spiced recipe (adapted from here). Yum!

I know I’m a little behind with this recipe, as Christmas has been over for over a week. But this yummy homemade Baileys is not only …
Ingredients
- 4 fresh egg yolks
- 1/2 cup cane sugar
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 4 1/4 cups whipping cream
- 1/2 cup alcohol
- 2 tsp. vanilla
- 1 tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tbsp. hot and strong brewed espresso
- 3 tbsp. tiger spice chai powder
Instructions
- Mix the sugar, cocoa and chai powder with the hot espresso.
- Add the egg yolks and mix until the sugar dissolves.3. Whip the cream into semi-solid consistency and mix with the egg-sugar-cocoa-espresso mixture.
- Add the alcohol.
- Fill in a bottle and keep cold until ready to serve.
Notes
- the Baileys keeps for about 2 weeks (kept cold).
- we used 90 vol%/ 180 proof alcohol (I believe in the US it is sold as Everclear). If you don’t have access to such high proof alcohol, I think you are safe with Whiskey or Rum as a substitute.
- shake well before serving.
- boil out a glass bottle to sterilize and let cool before filling it.
- with this recipe you get about 6 cups (48 fl. oz.) of Baileys.

Hi Vanessa. Homemade Bailey’s…sounds delicious. I use regular Bailey’s, mixed with sour cream and vanilla extract to create a fruit dip…I love it. Not sure if it would be the same but worth a try, perhaps? I am now a follower of your blog and look forward to return visits. I invite you to join me as well on my blog at http://atastefultouch.blogspot.com
Hugs, Gayle.
Sounds yummy! And I love the labels!
Um, Yum!!! Can’t wait to try this!
I LOVE Baileys! I shall have to try this recipe sometime! Better pin it so I don’t forget!
Thanks for linking to a Round Tuit!

I really like homemade gifts, But the problem with this one is it would never leave our house. Why, do you ask, Well because I would have to drink it. So I guess I will just accept the fact that I will make it for me!!!! Thanks for the recipe, and for sharing with us at Sunday’s Best.

Thank you for this! My husband is a Bailey’s fanatic…you just saved me loads of cash. ♥ I pinned it on Pinterest.
I love Baileys, but have never made it myself… I think I might have to give it a try soon! Thanks for the inspiration.

Hi,
I just made your Bailey’s a couple of gifts. It’s great but I am worried because of the strong coffee taste. .…more than I am use to. I noticed other recipes have 2 tsps not tbsps of instant coffee. Just checking to see if it was an error. I was planning to add coffee ice cubes but I will just serve with regular ice.…..one less step!
Hey! Thank you so much for letting me know about the error. It was supposed to be teaspoon and not tablespoon. I am so sorry to have messed up your batch of Baileys. I hope it still tasted okay. :)
Have a wonderful weekend!
xo! Vanessa
I have made 3 batches of the first recipie! Its so good.
I use ceral cream at 10% and tastes just as well. Help cut a little calories I hope.… Or just lets me drink more!
Thank you for sharing!
Neil
I’m happy to hear you liked the Baileys! :)
I haven’t found any cereal cream over here in Germany, but it sounds like a great calorie-saver!
Happy New Year!
Vanessa
