To make this tasty cocktail, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup Baileys Irish Cream
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 cup ice

Fresh Strawberries

It's important to use fresh strawberries in this recipe to achieve the best flavor. Frozen strawberries can be used in a pinch, but fresh is always best. Look for ripe strawberries that are bright red and fragrant.

Baileys Irish Cream

Baileys Irish Cream is the star of this cocktail. This creamy and sweet liqueur is made with Irish whiskey, cream, and a hint of cocoa and vanilla. Be sure to use Baileys or another Irish cream liqueur in this recipe, as it's what gives the cocktail its unique flavor.

Heavy Cream

Heavy cream is used to add richness and creaminess to the cocktail. You can use half-and-half or milk instead, but the drink won't be as creamy.

Sugar

Sugar is used to sweeten the cocktail and balance out the tartness of the strawberries. You can adjust the amount of sugar to your liking.

Ice

Ice is used to chill the cocktail and make it frosty and refreshing.
