1. Baileys Original Irish Cream
The original flavor remains to be the most popular one among alcohol drinkers and mixologists, alike. It’s rich with cocoa, a tad of chocolate, cream, vanilla, and Irish whiskey. We think there was a reason for this. The original flavor forms a perfect balance between the bitterness of the whiskey and the sweet chocolate-flavored cream.
Baileys Original Irish Cream also opens doors into the cocktail department. And we’re not just talking about adding it to your coffee. Get creative, make a Baileys-inspired martini, or make some Baileys hot chocolate for a cozy wintery Sunday.
2. Baileys Salted Caramel
Remember the time that salted caramel became the hype and everyone just wanted to use this as a flavor for all foods? There was caramel popcorn, caramel ice cream, caramel coffee, and best of all, Baileys Salted Caramel. The hype eventually died down, but this Baileys flavor has stuck for a long time.
This one is a thick, buttery caramel with a pinch of salt, mixed with Baileys’ original flavor. It bows more towards the sweeter side, but it still doesn’t come on too strong when drunk neat. We suggest pouring a shot of Baileys Salted Caramel over some vanilla ice cream. It’s an absolute delight!
