Do you like Baileys?

[RedRobin]

Yes, I love Baileys

Baileys is OK

No, I don't like Baileys

I don't know, I've never tried it/I'm under age

[Nachowedgie]

Baileys is the best alcoholic beverage

[Anon_af]

Yes, especially on ice cream

[RedRobin]

Ohh, you can do that? I've only ever had it either on its own, with ice or in coffee

[Anon_af]

Yeah, on vanilla ice cream... sensational!

[Anon_af]

Thanks for mho

[DutchessZero]

Only if you drink it from a shoe

[Sha84]

very tasty

[OnlyYouKnowThat]

Even though it is considered a 'lady's drink' I have to admit that I do like Baileys. I like Baileys in a Mud Slide cocktail:

1 shot of Baileys
1 shot of Kahlua
1 shot of vodka
Half a glass of milk
1 or 2 scoops of chocolate ice cream.
Shake it in a cocktail mixer, pour it into a glass and garnish it with some shaved chocolate.
If you don't have chocolate ice cream then you can add ice and chocolate syrup instead.

[BlueWalker]

Not anymore. It's not the same as it once was. It's not even made with cream anymore. It's made with modified milk ingredients. Now I drink Carolan's.

[InTimoreDei]

Agreed. Carolans is much better.

[BlueWalker]

Yep. More flavourful and complex, and it has a better texture, or "mouth feel" than Bailey's too. I hadn't had Irish cream in a while, but I was just recently converted once I tasted Carolan's. It's just a superior product and it's also a couple bucks cheaper as well.

[UnaHeley89]

I'm going to try that. Thanks.

[BlueWalker]

@UnaHeley89 You're welcome! I just had some again tonight. It's good stuff. Enjoy! 🙂

[goaded]

First no whiskey, then no cream? What's left? I'll try your suggestion for Christmas!

[BlueWalker]

@goaded Yeah, sad, but true. Bailey's is just a large corporate product now; only concerned with making the highest profit while trying to sell a cheaper product, thinking they can fool their long-standing customers. Guinness is another example of this too. It's like black water now. No character at all. So many great products (not just alcohol) have gone downhill because of corporate greed. It's so sad.

[goaded]

On the plus side, Guinness is now vegan.

I almost bought a North Face labelled jacket, but quickly realised it was a cheap and nasty jacket with a NF logo on it. The zip stuck the first time I tried it on!

[BlueWalker]

@goaded Guinness is vegan now? Wow, I always suspected they watered it down to appeal to a broader range of tastes, but that pretty much confirms it for me. It seems they are trying to appeal to everyone instead of staying true to the product that got them the brand recognition they have to begin with. That's all fine and dandy for vegans I guess, but it's still a shame for them, because Guinness is just a shell of its former self, taste-wise.

As soon as companies start having board room meetings about financial statements, how to grow quarterly profits and keep shareholders happy, product quality oftentimes goes downhill pretty quickly.

Guinness isn't even Guinness anymore. It's owned by parent company, and spirit brand-buying giant, Diageo, who also owns other brands such as Smirnoff, Johnnie Walker, Crown Royal, Bulleit, Talisker, Lagavulin, as well as many others. Oh, and yes, they own Baileys too. It's all downhill from here, folks. 😕

[goaded]

Don't get too down on Guinness, it just means they stopped using grotty bits of fish to filter it; the receipe's the same.

[Wonderer89]

I absolutely love it! Everything about it lol I’m saving my first drink in 18 months for Christmas and have a bottle of baileys ready to go.
Best thing to make with it though, is truffles 🤤
White chocolate, cream cheese and baileys rolled into balls and coated in biscuit crumbs

[Ranger2019]

What a great post, totally in my interest Rn. It's great, there's also a few good drinks you can make with it. I started collecting alcohol a few weeks ago so I can have a selection to try my hands at drink making and that's definitely on the list.

[Hurlyburly]

Used to like it, drank too much of it, now I can't stand the taste xD

[SarahsSummer]

I dont drink it straight but I do like it in a coffee drink with Kahlua and frangelico

[SarahsSummer]

I think its called a nutty Irishman

[PossiblyInsane]

Love it. What kind of a bartender would I be if I didn't?

[vishna]

I've never had it! :) it looks tastier than beer though!

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

I never tried it plus i don't drink alcohol beverages. Thanks for your question. I've heard of Bailey's from my cousin told me about it.

[chunlilovesvega]

wow yes it's one of my favorite drinks ever, that creamy taste aaah

[KingDio]

Its ok but i hear old gregg loves it... even drinks it from a shoe

[Massageman]

If I want chocolate, I'll have Hershey's, Dove, or Belgian if I can get it.

[hellacray]

Yup it's one of the few alcohol that I actually enjoy.

[AlexEfron]

Don't know. Never tried it. Never heard of it. Won't try it either 😂

[mezzymezzmez]

its worth it ;)

[AlexEfron]

@mezzymezzmez I'm staying away from anything intoxicating

[mezzymezzmez]

okay hahaah

[whocares22]

I've stopped drinking anything other than beer or wine. But, I did like Bailey's and coffee before.

[Ecco939]

Does it have alcohol? Is it tasty? Then it is for me.

[CaptainSmartass]

Never tried it. I'm not really one for the booze.

Simples...

[Anonymous]

I love it! Excellent base drink for a ton of mixed drinks.

[Anonymous]

i tried it. i didn't care for it. it's a spirit, right?

i tend to stay away from spirits. i like my beers

[Nachowedgie]

It's 14.5% there's a spirit mixed in but you don't taste it at all

[Opinion Owner]

thats kind of what actually scares me a little. the fact that you can't taste it. cause, that tends to make you drink more of it...

[goaded]

Maybe, but the rest is cream; how much cream can you drink in one go?

[Opinion Owner]

not much

[Jjpayne]

I have never tried it yet
