Baileys Irish Cream Liqueur is a fantastic blend between milk and alcohol. Baileys contains an alcohol content of 17%, mixed with homogenized Cream. Homogenization is a process that combines two liquids of the same thickness until they are one. Once mixed, the mix is then emulsified with oil to prevent the dairy and alcohol from separating. Baileys Irish Cream contains Cream, cocoa, along with other herbs and spices, making it a perfect addition to your hot chocolate. And that's how Baileys Irish Cream is made! You can find it in local grocery stores sold in 750ml bottles or more. Because of its alcohol content, you might think that it lasts long, like other liquors.
