I’ve so many strawberry cocktail recipes that I hardly ever trouble to create a brand new one lately. June twenty fifth is Strawberry Parfait Day however I felt that recipe could be too near a number of of my different Strawberry Cocktail Recipes and by no means bothered.
Then I used to be given a bottle of Bailey’s Strawberries & Cream. Now, I am not an enormous proponent of getting a bunch of specialty liqueurs in my bar. It is costly, area consuming and as a rule these oh-so-specific flavored spirits simply sit and collect mud. I favor a bar stocked with prime quality fundamentals, a few my private faves and my means to be inventive sufficient to attain any taste profile desired. However there it was, a specialty mix of certainly one of my bar fundamentals, the unique Bailey’s Irish Cream – simply in time for Strawberry Parfait Day and simply begging to turn out to be a cocktail.
So flip it right into a cocktail I did, and it turned out fairly tasty and I made 2 every for 4 associates and, bingo, nothing left to collect mud in my bar. Would I purchase Bailey’s Strawberries & Cream? No. Is it good, sure, however not deserving of a everlasting spot in my bar line-up.
If I wish to recreate this cocktail? I will do it by changing the specialty Bailey’s with my bar customary common Bailey’s and substitute a strawberry ice cream for the vanilla.
BUT when you’re trying to find a scrumptious, pink, strawberry dessert cocktail and occur to have a bottle of Bailey’s Strawberries & Cream, right here you go:
