Irish Cream with Scotch
My husband and I like to enjoy an occasional glass of Irish Cream on the rocks. Instead of paying the high price of purchasing a bottle, I knew there had to be a way to make it at home. After flipping through old cookbooks I found a recipe that called for ingredients I had in my pantry. The recipe I used called for Scotch, however I am sure you could swap that for some Jameson. Whip up a batch and enjoy your St. Patrick’s Day!
Need another St. Patrick’s Day recipe? Check out my Cottage Pie recipe or Low Cal Shepherd’s Pie.
Looks delicious! A wonderful way to celebrate St Pats. 🙂
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I was given the cranberry syrup by a friend a while back. I have not seen it anywhere around here (I too live in Nebraska) but you can make your own.
Cranberry syrup
1 tablespoon water
1/4 cup sugar
6 ounces (1/4 bag) frozen or fresh cranberries
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
To prepare the syrup
Combine the water, sugar and cranberries and heat in a small pan over medium-low heat.
Simmer for about 2-3 minutes or until cranberries pop. Drain cranberries through a sieve.
Cool completely and add lime juice.
Please stop by anytime. Glad to find some other Omaha bloggers! 🙂
