I hardly ever drink alcohol, but when I do, Baileys is one of my favorite drinks. That’s why I’m in love with this Vegan Baileys recipe, and I wanna share it with you for Saint Patrick’s Day.
Our Vegan Baileys is healthier, lighter, so sweet, creamy and you won’t even find the difference! I like even more than original Baileys, and it’s ready in less than 5 minutes!
This recipe is dairy-free, so if you have lactose intolerance, you can enjoy it. In addition, is sugar-free because we’ve used agave syrup, but you can also use maple syrup or honey (if you’re not vegan). Maybe you’ll want to add more whiskey, it’s your choice.
This time we’ve used coconut milk, but you can also use almond milk, we love both.
To make Baileys we’ve used Irish whiskey, we like Jameson, it’s our favorite, but if you prefer, you can use other kind or brand of whiskey.
We don’t usually make recipes using alcohol or coffee because we don’t consume them in our daily lives, but this is a special day and we wanna celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day with an Irish drink.
Now we invite you to make this Vegan Baileys, pour yourself a drink and let’s toast. Happy Saint’s Patrick Day!

Hi Amy! So glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Did you use instant coffee? Just curious. Thanks!
Hi Roxanne! No, I didn’t, I used brewed coffee 🙂
I used to buy the Bailey’s Almonde for my coffee. This recipe is exceptional and will save me so much money. I added a 3/4 tsp. of instant espresso granules to bump up the coffee flavor, used the vanilla and slightly less agave because I don’t like it too sweet. I used the rest of my bottle of Jameson’s which was a little over 1/3 cup, mixed it and it is back in the Jameson’s bottle for use in my coffee. Thanks!

Hi Cheryl! Sounds great 🙂 You’re so welcome!
Hi, I forgot to say I can’t have coconut in any form so I made my vegan Baileys with cashew milk, with a bit less water and as I said it definitely did the trick for me!
Hi Deborah! I’m so glad it worked for you 🙂
Hi, this sounds gr8! Did you use coconut alternative milk or a tin of coconut milk?
Hi Louise! I used canned coconut milk 🙂
Ooh, gorgeous, haven’t had Baileys for 8/9 Christmas’s since giving up dairy. I won’t be missing out again!
THNK YOU

Should the coffee be cooled before blending? I won’t be drinking it straight away
Hi Danielle! Yes, it’s better not to use hot coffee 🙂

Hi Judi! So glad you liked it 🙂
Mine curdled big time 😕 Any advice please?
Hi Jen! I’m so sorry the recipe didn’t work for you. Have you used the same ingredients and followed all the steps? Did you use almond or coconut milk?
This is the best!! Thank-you!
Hi Elaine! Thank YOU, so glad you liked it 🙂
When you say 1/4 coffe how much granulated coffe is that?
Hi Emily! I used brewed coffee, so I can’t help you, sorry!
I actually made it with dark rum I used Havana 7 year old and added a little oat cream to make it thicker……it was devine
This recipe will last for several months, I also kept it in n the fridge.

Hi Darren! So glad you liked it 🙂 Sounds AMAZING. Have a nice day!
How long will this keep in the fridge? Thanks
Hi Megan! For up to a week 🙂
Hi. Just made this for Vegan GF.
I also added a heaped teaspoon of cocoa powder ( and considerably more Jamesons lol). With organic tinned coconut milk a little curdling occured but did not spoil it in the least. Very very nice indeed. Thanks.
( we were both very dissapointed with Bailey Almande). This beats it hands down.

Hi! So glad you liked it 🙂
I am so amazed that I haven’t found this recipe until now. Thanks, Tuija from Finland
Hi Tuija! So glad you like it 🙂
Just a quick note – just because it’s agave syrup or honey or anything else doesn’t mean that there is no sugar inside. honey and agave syrup are full of sugar. It is just not reffined…
Apart from that: Great recipe! Loved it
Hi Berry! Thanks a lot for your comment 🙂
