🥃 Baileys Salted Caramel
Caramel version of Baileys: Original Irish Cream with caramel and a pinch of salt; 17% ABV according to the brand's British page; contains milk.
Baileys Salted Caramel is the flavoured version of the Baileys liqueur with salted caramel. According to the brand's British page, the caramel is combined with Baileys Original Irish Cream, a pinch of salt and other flavourings and ingredients. Its strength is 17% ABV, as for the Original.
The brand suggests adding the liqueur to desserts and baking, or serving it on ice. The nutrition table gives 7 g of alcohol per 50 ml serving and 13.5 g per 100 ml. The full composition is not given, and milk and dairy products, including lactose, are listed as allergens. This makes it possible to judge the serving: 50 ml contains 7 g of pure alcohol, so the caramel flavour does not make the drink lighter.
Why this matters to you. The strength is the same as the Original, although the taste is sweeter, so do not treat it as a lighter drink. To compare it with other lines of the brand, check the label for your market. The WHO reminds us that there is no safe dose of alcohol.
