The Old Tolbooth Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 But Irish Meadows and fill the Baileys bottle with it mate, it's only ?4 a bottle in Tesco's and she'll never notice the difference (p.s. don't tell her I said that ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitster Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Baileys..just such a christmas drink isn't it? One of those bottles you buy this time of year (along with port, sherry and brandy) then you find the idea was better than the purchase. I've only tried the mint baileys mate..it's like drinking a milky version of an after eight in a glass but it's actually quite nice for one over ice and I'm sure you could make some great cocktails with it.

Medico Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Would say the original one is the best. Creme caramel and Mint are both alright, caramel's probably a bit nicer. Not a fan of the coffee flavoured one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronJambo Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 do her a favour and ditch the baileys!! get her some Jagos instead. its like baileys, but much nicer and much smoother. more expensive too, but you should be able to get a bottle for ?12/?13 (the price in the link is expensive!) its quite hard to find, but they've a website thats got stockists on it (i'm too tired to look for it!). this is it here http://www.drinkon.com/Details/SP999111/Detail/Spirit take note of the suggestion in the link, she'll love a minty bitch!

super_vlad Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Fruli Strawberry meets Baileys = Tequila Rose ! Quite nice stuff for women. http://www.drinksmixer.com/desc562.html# (on a side not, if you go to the link search for a 1874, one of my better moments) Fruli is a wheat beer, so if you like that try something like Frankisar, its a bit like pale ale, but atleast people won't think you are a poof ! Or the other side go for a Kriek beer (Timmermans or Lindemans) its as gay as it comes but if you like drink fruit its lot better than WKD !

thehibsareintheirbeds Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 The mrs is 35 weeks pregnant and hasnt really had any cravings so far- other than the usual for clothes and handbags- but when that advert comes on for the coffee baileys she absolutely loses the plot, and it takes me half an hour to remind her she's just going to have to wait before i buy her any. Tempted to get a couple of bottles in and relax in front of sky sports with a glass or two, but i'm not sure i'd survive through one sip. Does the job baileys but doesnt beat a nice whisky or port for after dinner sherrapingpangpongs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DikT. Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Used to put that coffee flavoured liqueur in a glass, dash of sambucca and topped with Baileys like you do an Irish Coffee. That was nice but can't remember what it was called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's flavoured with strawberries and sweet as hell - my missus drinks it. Far better drinking Kriek (Belgian beer). It can be got in a range of flavours - raspberry & cherry :2thumbsup:. Much better and much more expensive than Fruli. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boaby Ewing Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Be warned, Baileys is a dangerous drink. Lorenzo Amoruso turned into a 'Baileys alcoholic' when he was out injured. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lorenzo-Amoruso-Confidential-Autobiography/dp/0951347179 "It's hilarious rubbish. I know footballers' books are generally insane one sided accounts of their ego driven urges, but Amo takes the biscuit. From tales of him getting fat and drunk during his injury fuelled Baileys addiction (what sort of bloke becomes a Baileys alcoholic for grief's sake) to his absolute incredulity and indignation at being branded a racist for racially abusing a player. The shirtless shots of him in the middle might appeal to girls (or boys) who enjoyed bouffant 80s metal though." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
