Description
This Iced Coffee with Kahlúa and Baileys is a luxurious coffee cocktail blending bold, chilled coffee with smooth Irish cream and coffee liqueur. It’s creamy, lightly boozy, and perfect for brunch or relaxing evenings.
Ingredients
4 oz freshly brewed strong coffee, cooled
1–1½ oz Kahlúa (coffee liqueur)
1–1½ oz Baileys Irish Cream
Ice cubes
Optional: splash of heavy cream or a dollop of whipped cream
Optional garnish: chocolate shavings, cocoa powder, or coffee beans
Instructions
- Brew strong coffee and chill completely to avoid dilution.
- Fill a tall glass or tumbler with ice cubes.
- Pour in the cooled coffee.
- Add Kahlúa, then Baileys.
- Stir gently to combine, creating a creamy, refined layer.
- If desired, add a splash of heavy cream or top with whipped cream.
- Garnish with chocolate shavings, cocoa powder, or coffee beans.
- Serve immediately over ice.
Notes
Use cold brew instead of brewed coffee for smoother, less acidic flavor.
Opt for dairy‑free Irish cream (like Baileys Almande) and plant‑based cream if needed.
Drizzle caramel sauce inside the glass before pouring for a sweet contrast.
Add a pinch of cinnamon or espresso powder for aromatic depth.
To serve martini-style, shake ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled glass.
