Share on social media

We love a boozy coffee cocktail, and this Baileys Iced Coffee is such a delicious cocktail for any coffee lover. All you need is some cold brew coffee (or some hot coffee, cooled), and Bailey’s! Ice is good too, and if you want toppings that just makes your boozy iced coffee even better.

Why we love this recipe:

• We love Baileys. We have made so many Bailey’s Irish Cream Liqueur cocktails, but this Baileys Iced Coffee is our favorite boozy iced coffee recipe.
• This makes for a great hot weather cocktail, a perfect brunch drink, or a delicious after-dinner drink.
• We love drinks with simple ingredients, and this definitely falls into that category.

Bailey’s Iced Coffee Ingredients:

• 1 cup cold brew coffee (either store bought or home brewed)
• Baileys Irish Cream
• Whipped cream for topping, optional
• Ice (or coffee cubes- see our substitutions and tips below)

Note: You can also just brew some strong regular coffee and allow it to cool if you don’t want to fuss with making cold brew.

Directions:

Step 1: Fill a tall glass with ice.

Step 2: Pour in cold coffee.

Step 3: Add Baileys Irish Cream to taste. (Usually, about a 1-1 ratio, equal parts coffee and Bailey’s.)

Step 4: Top with whipped cream, if desired.

Enjoy!
