How to Make Irish Cream Step by Step

Blend the Cream: Combine 1 cup of heavy cream, 12 ounces (1 can) of sweetened condensed milk, 1⅔ cups of Irish whiskey, 2 teaspoons of instant coffee granules, 1 tablespoon of chocolate syrup, 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract, and ½ teaspoon of almond extract in a blender or use an immersion blender for 30 seconds. You don’t want to blend for too long or whipped cream may form. If you do get a bit of cream on top, just sift through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth. Bottle the Cream: Bottle in a tightly sealed container and refrigerate. Shake well before using.
