🥃 Baileys Espresso Crème
Coffee version of Baileys: Original Irish Cream with Colombian coffee and natural flavourings; 17% ABV; contains milk.
Baileys Espresso Crème is the coffee version of the Baileys liqueur. According to the brand's British page, it combines real Colombian coffee and other natural flavourings with Baileys Original Irish Cream. Its strength is 17% ABV. The brand offers it neat, in coffee cocktails and in coffee or hot drinks.
The page does not give a full ingredient list, so we do not name exact proportions or the coffee extraction method. The base is a cream liqueur with Irish whiskey and cream. The allergen is milk and dairy products, including lactose; the page says nothing about vegan status. Among the brand's ideas: adding the liqueur to coffee, hot drinks or coffee cocktails, and drinking it neat.
Why this matters to you. The page mentions coffee but gives no caffeine content, so do not rely on a figure without data from the manufacturer. The version has the same strength as the Original. The WHO reminds us that there is no safe dose of alcohol.
