Baileys - On offer anywhere ?

Hi
I've got some friends coming round who are keen Baileys drinkers. Has anyone seen it on offer anywhere ?

Cheers

mySupermarket.co.uk lists it on offer in Morrisons.

Thanks I saw that too 700ml for £12 but I was in B&M this morning & they had it for £2.49 for 200ml so I got a few of those.

My mum really likes the aldi version which is considerably cheaper.

The lidl one is excellent, just like baileys

The aldi one is good, I got the slightly more expensive deluxe version they do, it's not 100% like Baileys but for the price very good.

If you get any alternatives, make sure it's ones made with whiskey, not white wine which some are - and taste awful IMO.

For next time, save the bottle and try this ...

“BAILEYS” CREAM

Makes approx. 1 litre

INGREDIENTS

400g tin of condensed milk
170g tin of evaporated milk
300ml carton of single cream
250ml of Scotch whisky
4 teaspoons of coffee essence

METHOD

Pour the milk and cream into a 1 litre jug or bowl.

Add the whisky and coffee essence.

Stir together.

Pour into a clean 1 litre bottle.

ADDITIONS & ALTERNATIVES

Adjust the amount of coffee essence to taste.

The original recipe specified UHT long-life single cream, but this can now be difficult to find. Use normal single cream instead.

Don’t use your best single malt for this. Any cheap supermarket own-brand blend will do.

TIPS

Use the whisky to wash out the milk and cream containers, then add it to the bowl.

[FONT=&quot]This will keep in the fridge. However, I don't know how long it will keep for: it’s never stayed around long enough to go off. [/FONT]

This stuff should come with a health warning: it's seriously addictive!

December is my treat month and I calculated that a good size glass of Baileys over ice in the evenings was adding nearly 800 kcal to my daily diet! (But making me v happy).

Eta: if its just your friends drinking, you are much better off buying the 200ml sizes or going down the HM route. A bottle generally has only a few good weeks after opening.
