Notes
Store: Once your Homemade Baileys Irish Cream is ready, store it in the refrigerator to preserve its freshness. In particular, keep the cream refrigerated for it not to curdle over the provision of the best taste.
Shake Before Serving: Shake the bottle very well before serving because ingredients sit towards the bottom of the bottle and settle with age.
