1 cupHeavy cream
1 canSweetened Condensed Milk; 14 oz; Carnation best
1 1/2 cupWhiskey; Irish only, Jameson's strongly preferred
1 teaspoonInstant coffee; Folger's Decaf
2 1/2 tablespoonsChocolate syrup
1 teaspoonVanilla extract; real
3/4 teaspoonAlmond extract; real

Irish Cream, homemade (alcoholic) Preparation

In a blender, combine heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, Irish whiskey, instant coffee, chocolate syrup, vanilla extract, and almond extract.

Blend on high for 20 to 30 seconds.

Store in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator.

Shake well before serving or re-decanting.

Notes

The most important flavor ingredient is the whiskey -- stick with Jameson's Irish Whisky.

Folger's Decaf and Carnation Sweetened Condensed Milk likewise give the best flavor results.

If the mixture is too thick (it IS thick), you can add a few splashes of half-and-half, but do not substitute the heavy cream, as it is essential on its own.

Used half and half instead of heavy cream and regular coffee sorry Bailey's homemade is better

I think next time I may use less/light cream, too rich for my taste! Delicious after adding some milk!!!!
