Description

A quick and easy iced coffee recipe combining strong brewed coffee with Baileys Irish Cream, milk, and homemade whipped cream for a creamy, indulgent treat perfect for any time of day.

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup (240 ml) strong brewed coffee (freshly brewed or cold brew concentrate)
3 tablespoons (45 ml) Baileys Irish Cream
1/2 cup (120 ml) milk (whole milk preferred, or almond, oat, or dairy-free alternatives)
Ice cubes as needed
1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy cream, chilled
1 tablespoon (12 g) powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Cocoa powder or chocolate shavings for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Brew about 1 cup (240 ml) of strong brewed coffee. Let it cool to room temperature or chill in the fridge for 15-20 minutes.
Pour 1/2 cup (120 ml) of chilled heavy cream into a cold mixing bowl. Add 1 tablespoon (12 g) powdered sugar and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract if using. Whisk with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 2-3 minutes.
In a serving glass, combine the cooled coffee with 3 tablespoons (45 ml) Baileys Irish Cream and 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk. Stir gently to blend.
Fill the glass with ice cubes to chill the coffee mixture thoroughly.
Spoon or pipe the whipped cream generously on top of the iced coffee.
Optionally, sprinkle cocoa powder or chocolate shavings over the whipped cream.
Serve immediately with a straw or long spoon.

Notes

Use chilled bowl and beaters for best whipped cream results. If no electric mixer, whisk cream by hand with a chilled bowl. For dairy-free, use coconut cream for whipping and dairy-free milk. Warm Baileys slightly if cold to avoid clumping. Serve immediately for best texture.
