Irish Cream

[Dolphindream15]

is there a way to make irish cream coffee with out using the BOOZ,,, like making some kind of irish cream syrup that one can put into there coffee,,without the alchol,,,,must be a recipe for irish cream coffee without the alchol in it,,,can one leave that out,,

[ChefTips]

@Dolphindream15 Sorry, but I don't have a recipe for this without alcohol.

[illmatic33]

I want to know how to preserve this product for shelf life? Bailey's claim its a secret but i really doubt it... I know alcohol preserve stuff but there is more to it to get it to last that long even after its open. Any takers?

[MattDoubleYou1020]

Wow, you just taught me how to make Bailey's, you know everything!

[francisvsu]

Is the egg necessary? Uncooked eggs are salmonella-risk food.

[ChefTips]

@francisvsu Yes, the egg is necessary in this version. If you prefer, you can cook this over low heat until the mixture reaches about 160 degrees F.

[CapeVerdeIguana]

@francisvsu salmonella is good for you it builds character

[000jacb]

now that looks great

[ChefTips]

@000jacb Thanks!

[blackmondae]

its been a long while since the last time i viewed your video.

Is it ok if i skip the alcohol? whats the sub if we really dont wanna add them? Wanna make some kiddy friendly version.

Jason, you rock!

[ChefTips]

@blackmondae Thank you so much! Actually, this requires the alcohol. I don't know a work-around. So sorry!

[kingofsapi]

AWESOME! I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE Irish Cream but I nevert thought I could make my own! Thank you sooooooo much for posting this up!

Erm, mine a quick question? What brand of whisky and brandy should I use? Cheap brands aren't gonna cut it right?

[ChefTips]

@kingofsapi

Hello. Jameson Irish whiskey would be my choice. As far as a Brandy, a good Cognac would be my recommendation.

[datboinique1918]

ok thanks!

[ChefTips]

@datboinique1918

You're welcome!

[datboinique1918]

What substitution can be done for the alcohol?

[ChefTips]

@datboinique1918

Hi. Sorry, Irish Cream is an alcohol drink. I do have a good hot chocolate mix video that you can make and chill for a non-alcoholic drink.

[Stephen15269]

yes i have one quick qustion instead of using alcohol can u like not put it in and make it a virgin drink with like no alcohol in it just wondering because i am irish and i would like 2 try it but i am only 13 so is their a way u can make it a virgin????

[ChefTips]

@Stephen15269

That might be a question you should ask your parents.

[solidiquis1]

Mine came out really thick? Is it supposed to be that way? It's amazing! But I only wish it was more liquidy.

[ChefTips]

@solidiquis1 Yes, it is supposed to be thick and creamy.

[SmilingEyes79]

Heart and liver disease all in one glass, who says the irish arent innovative.

[ChefTips]

@SmilingEyes79

That's It! Well besides the bangers... 

[lemonrind]

I did some calculating, and the final product will have about 9% alcohol (assuming the brandy and whisky are 40% alcohol). That's about half the alcohol concentration you get from Bailey's Irish Cream. I recommend adding more booze if you want to get nicely intoxicated.

[ChefTips]

@lemonrind

Ha haa! Will do!

[smackcheeks]

@lemonrind Yeah but did you see how he slugged that huge glass down. Three of those would make you nicely merry... much better than sipping on a teeny glass of Bailey's. You gotta slug the stuff down man, at a fraction of the price.

[abyssa]

is there a substitute I can use for eggs I am a vegetarian and I do not eat eggs.

[ChefTips]

@abyssa Is there a vegetarian substitute for eggs out there? Maybe a health store might have something you can use. Sorry I can't help more...

[XtcRaver420]

@ChefTips Here's a recipe I found the other day, 1 cup light cream 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz.) 1 2/3 cups Irish whiskey 1 teaspoon instant coffee 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 teaspoon almond extract Combine all the ingredients in a blender and blend at high speed for about 20 seconds. Transfer to a clean bottle with a tightly fitting cap. Store, refrigerated, and shake well before using.

[ChefTips]

@XtcRaver420

Thanks for sharing! Sounds good!

[looneyirish]

@abyssa

why dont you eat eggs, ?

veggies dont eat meat,

its all part and parcel of being a veg

[shinesmile77]

Thanks Jason, another fab easy to follow recipe x

[blinder8]

I've been wondering what to do with my irish whiskey. I don't want to drink it just as it is because I don't feel creative, I feel i want to do something more with it

[ChefTips]

@blinder8

Hello. Check out my video "steak sauce."

[TheBian27]

Hi, can i make the irish cream without eggs? Cos i don't like raw eggs thx.

[FutureLaugh]

its cool drinking the raw eggs? what kind of eggs should i use- is there a substitute?

[ChefTips]

You should be fine. We've never had any problems.

[MrMikealy]

I'm going to make this next week.

[ChefTips]

Hope you enjoy it!

[3sheetz2thawind]

I might just have to try this on St. Paddy's Day.

[ChefTips]

Hope you enjoy it!

[vnck25]

When I was stationed in Belfast, in the early 80s this is not the way I made cream out of the Irish LOL.

Any way the method given here by the chef is very new to me, with regards to how I made, Irish Cream in the good old days.

[wimbago]

@vnck25 we used a big canary to make british cream in the 90's . . . .

[laceup1967]

"When I was stationed in Belfast, in the early 80s this is not the way I made cream out of the Irish LOL."

Um... didn't they kick your sorry ass out? Enjoy the cream.

[ChefTips]

@arenusaura

Thanks for catching that! =]

[viktorkec1996]

goog video

[viktorkec1996]

Wit the water I did not understand that. Because in the description you write 13 / 4 tablespoons water what you mean with that.

excuse for my bad english.

[ChefTips]

@arenusaura

You're welcome. Enjoy!  =]

[666Ledmaiden]

guys for future ref. its either failthe meaning hello or slan meaning goodbye.

[wimbago]

@666Ledmaiden failthe means welcome and slan means goodbye. slainte like Jason says means good health but is used as good luck/safe journey etc.

[Vilcias]

Hello ChefTips,

I have a few questions.

does it have to be refrigerated, and

if not how long would all the ingredients stay mixed without separated from the whiskey.

Thanks

[ChefTips]

Now you are getting scientific on me... lol.

Honestly, I don't make this enough to know. I have always refrigerated my batches and it has never separated while in the refrigerator. Of course it never stays around long enough... =]

[Kieransvids]

Good thing about being irish, Excellent alcholic drinks! :-)

[ChefTips]

Ah yes! Slainte!

[dimplespoo]

looks tastt but i would leave the egg out becuz i just dont trust the egg.

[andrewqazxsw]

what about the raw egg you could get sick from that

[ChefTips]

In the recipe, I mention to refrigerate 24 hours. This allows the flavors to meld and helps the alcohol "cook" the egg. You can leave the egg out if you like.

[Nintendoid64]

Sigh, here in ireland you would be lucky to find something that looks that good apart from drink.lol

[asr72]

I'm already on my 3rd batch in a month!! Great for when friends come over. So easy to make and tastes awesome! I think I've passed this recipe to at least 10 people already.

[ChefTips]

Glad you enjoyed the recipe! Thanks for passing it on, and thanks for commenting!

Cheers,

Jason

[Lotusblossom1967]

That looks like a lot of booze!!! But I'll sacrifice my liver for the sake of a new recipe (I'm pleased you weren't cooking offal!! lol)

[ChefTips]

offal! ha... I won't be doing that!

[JimmyMacLong]

Now that looks nice. I will try it. :-)

[ChefTips]

Enjoy! It's always fun to make your own. Makes a nice homemade gift as well!

~ Cheers, Jason

[flflguy]

Never tried it once and hated it, tried your recipe and it was the best thing EVER!!!!!!!, true Chef

[ChefTips]

So glad you like this! We find that it tastes so much better after at least a day in the refrigerator. The flavors really meld. Thanks again! Jason

[tedizzle45]

once you are done do you need to keep it refridgerated or does the alchohol keep it from going bad?

[ChefTips]

I like to keep it in the refrigerator.

[goGradygo]

Found your channel today while looking for my friends movie about a banana. Well, I couldn't find my friend's video, but I found your videos and I LOVE them! I just subscribed!

[ChefTips]

Great! Hope you enjoy our recipes, and always feel free to ask questions or send us requests! Cheers, Jason

[themachinegunn]

can you change the eggs for anything?

[ChefTips]

You can try this recipe without them, but I haven't tried it this way. Give it a try if you are opposed to the eggs, and let us know how it works out!

Cheers, Jason

[ELiiiiZaD]

What are the eggs for? I'm afraid of drinking something with raw eggs in it.

[dennysdahottie]

yeah me too for somereason i feel like cooling the eggs over a dobble boiler or something like if im making chocolate musse*

[ChefTips]

The FDA does NOT recommend consuming unpasteurized raw eggs under any circumstances, but concentrations of alcohol as low as 8 percent are high enough to kill problematic bacteria that may be present. The Irish Whiskey and Brandy in this recipe contains 40 percent alcohol.

[EphesiaChic]

Wow, that looks amazing. I'm going to have to try this and impress my friends. Thanks!!!!!! You always give me great ideas when I watch your show.

[ChefTips]

Thanks for the comment EphesiaChic. Hope you like the recipe!

[ChefTips]

Thanks for the nice comment!

[barabbas18]

Great stuff mate! :)

[ChefTips]

Thanks so much! Cheers, Jason

[Deadite32]

I can't wait to make this! Is there anything else you can put in it to alter it slightly? I'm not Irish so I wouldn't mind breaking tradition! LOL

Thanks so much for this, I can't wait to see the rest of your videos.

[ChefTips]

How would you like to alter it? You can add some Godiva chocolate liqueur or hazelnut liqueur if you like. Hope you enjoy it! Jason

[risquecat]

wow, I had no idea that Irish Cream has raw eggs in it. I always thought that it was just milkshake with whiskey/brandy. I totally learn something new everytime I watch you videos.

[ChefTips]

Thanks risquecat! Glad you enjoy the videos. That means a lot to us.

Cheers! Jason

[MattDJ2]

Are there any issues with the eggs? or is it pretty safe making that.

[ChefTips]

The FDA does NOT recommend consuming unpasteurized raw eggs under any circumstances, but concentrations of alcohol as low as 8 percent are high enough to kill problematic bacteria that may be present. The Irish Whiskey and Brandy in this recipe contains 40 percent alcohol.

[Talabera2020]

Hi, I'm from Argentina, I make something similar for making "Bayleys" but I start with the eggs in a saucepan and heat them to 60ºC, with the milk and cream, and them with they are cold proceed with the recipe...

[ChefTips]

Sounds great! Jason

[stonerj0e]

i'm sooooo making this!

[ChefTips]

Hope you like it! We made another batch last night for St. Patrick's Day! Good stuff!

[Espeonpwnsuall]

could i leave out the alcohol? it looks like it would taste good on its own.

[ChefTips]

If you leave out the alcohol, then I recommend leaving out the raw eggs and make a milk shake. I have a video called "Dates" that shows you how to make a great "alcohol free" milk shake. You may want to try that recipe.

[forroz]

Hi, i´m from argentina. I just wanted to ask how much mililitres (ml3) are contained in the cup you use? Thanks

[ChefTips]

One US cup = 236.588238 milliliters

Hope this helps! Thanks! Jason

[janjenya]

I love to watch your recipes!

But i am watching from Turkey. And some times it is hard to find every piece on the recipe.

And sometimes it is hard to understand what you are saying :/

Can you write down the list for this recipe if it's possible? Thank you a lot!

[ChefTips]

Hello. Click (more info) at the upper right corner of this page for the ingredient list.

[nucca3000]

r the eggs safe

[ChefTips]

Great question nucca3000!

[redfullmoon]

I remember reading somewhere that there're eggs out in the market that have been slightly heated so that it's safe to consume when recipes call for raw eggs...

[47065360]

It looks delicious, I think it is similar to Baileys.

[ChefTips]

Yes it is!

Cheers!

[JessicaPersonalChef]

Wow! That's not on the Body For Life plan...but Free Day is coming up!

[9aspengold5]

Jason, I love your video's. Do you have any "Diabetic " friendly recipes. I am pretty good with savory, but am having a hard time finding good dessert recipes for my husband. Can you help, or at least point me in the right direction. Thanks.

[russtex]

Mmmmmmm......sounds sooo good! Never knew we could make it at home.

[ChefTips]

Thanks! It's really quite good. Be sure you do refrigerate it overnight, as that is how the good flavor really develops.

Take care! Jason

[russtex]

Will do!

You take care as well.

Russ

[UltimasXero]

I love Irish Cream, and now I can make my own! Cheers again.

By the way, I love the celtic music in the background.

[Mookmaster01]

Lets get drunk! My birthday is the 18! lol

[CloudDouche]

[night1y]

I love this recipe!

[OlympicClassDandy]

Sounds good Jason! I think you would be excellent on Food Network.

[no1left]

i MUST try this one, love your vids

[ChefTips]

Thanks! Hope you enjoy it!

[DustinHsiao]

Hey Jason,

I don't drink very often at all (basically never), but that does seem like a great drink. Nice to know what goes into the stuff we put through ourselves no matter what it is.

Cheers,

Dustin

[ChefTips]

Thanks Dustin! We appreciate that you always take the time to say something nice about our videos. You are a great inspiration! Happy St. Patrick's Day! Jason

[MadBadVoodo]
