Hiya, I was looking on this site yesterday, and found lots of recipies for sweetie vodka, and sloe vodka. It was so good that I have bought the vodka and sweeties, also a cheap water filter to sort out the cheap vodka I have also bought.

But now I can't find the recipies, can someone please help me?

Thank you
:A

On page 3 of this thread is a recipe for skittles vodka and instructions on filtering vodka. However, I wouldn't bother filtering the vodka if you're going to be adding the skittles. The filtering is more for making cheap vodka ok to drink neat I believe.

ok so i was watching super scrimpers last night i'd like to have ago at making my own baileys but they didn't really give amounts or anything and i'd love old fashioned bottles like they had if anyone can find them, so does anyone have a recipe and a link to nice bottles please also how long does it keep for?

waitrose recipe here - keeps 2 weeks in fridge.

I make a pretty simple recipe that goes down well. Mix a tin of condensed milk, a tin of evaporated milk, the condensed milk tin full of whisky, a teaspoon of instant coffee - blend. Keeps a few weeks if it lasts that long.

ok i'm gonna sound really stupid here since the clue is in the name but does it have to be irish whiskey?

and for anyone who's made it before assuming i can't find some pretty bottles (xmas presses are done for this year so i'll have a year before i need bottles anyway) what do you store it in?

Lakeland sell bottles. It can be scotch whiskey too.

I think the it was probably named "Irish" to reflect the alcohol content - in the same way as Irish coffee was a concoction for Americans, who seem to name everything and anything vaguely spirited as "Irish".
