    Default Homemade Irish Creme (like Bailey's) -- very frugal

    Serve over ice. KEEP REFRIDGERATED.

    Some may be put off by the raw eggs. All I can say is....I have eaten raw cookie dough all my life and this recipe of 'Bailey's' all of my adult life and I have never been sick or died. YMMV.

    >>>>(Disclaimer! This recipe contains raw eggs! If you don't want to risk ingesting raw eggs, don't drink this! I have warned you, and will not be responsible for any trauma you suffer.) LOL!

    I would think the alcohol would kill any germs in the eggs. But I'm no expert and I'm sure some expert will show up soon to argue about it.

    I wonder if this recipe would freeze well or if things would separate.

    Same here, cab. Thank you for this recipe! I used to make this years ago but have forgotten all about it. This will be a nice treat next weekend.

    Has been years since I have made that........have that recipe too.

    It is really good.....I also received a recipe w/o eggs and it was pretty darn good too.

    yum yum

    I made mine with a blended scotch... but next time I'll switch it to Whiskey. The scotch is a little too.... woody for this.

    I usually put only 2/3 cup in it for just me and dh. It does seem very strong and I'm usually not a whiskey drinker. I like vodka, but don't use that in here! I don't imbibe much over Christmas. I need to have my wits about me to have two parties in 2 days with 50 people!

    That's all the reason to drink MORE!
