Salted Caramel Milkshake with Vegan Irish Creme - a sweet and salty dream of a milkshake, with homemade vegan Irish Creme - perfect for a snow day, or ANY day!
A few years ago, Portland had a huge winter storm. Snowpocalypse, or something like that, according to the news. Inches andΒ feet and piles of snow.
Back then we were at the old house, the one on a couple acres. This is two rare acres in the middle of Southwest Portland, and we were the last house on this semi private road. We were actually unincorporated, end of county service. Which meant the snowplow would come right up to the bridge right before our house, and stop. Leaving a huge pile of snow, as if we weren't there.
We couldn't drive anyway, the road was a sheet of ice. We were stuck indoors for more than two weeks. This two week period is when I created my vegan Baileys Irish cream recipe. We enjoyed Bailey's and coffee each morning, while sitting in front of the fire and watching even more snow fall...

Macey says
That sounds heavenly! Both the snow and the shake! I'm from Idaho and I'm used to LOTS of snow, but also a town that can handle it, so I've never been trapped indoors for too long. I think getting snowed in for a few days would be really fun!
spabettie says
yes, actually I think after two weeks, I was SO READY to get out of there! I have a 4 wheel drive, so even though there was still a ton of snow and some ice on our hill, I got out of there to celebrate (a late!) Christmas!) π
Elle says

Homemade Baileys rules the world. I made it for St. Paddys and I am a changed woman forever. Add in salted caramel milkshakey goodness. YUM!!
spabettie says
it DOES rule! and goes VERY well with salted caramel...
Jess says
I friggin LOVE bailey's in coffee!! And am obsessed with anything salted caramel. We seriously share the same tastebuds I swear. YUM!! PS love the story behind the bailey's inspiration btw, so fun!
spabettie says
I think we DO share the same tastes... did you read the story on the Bailey's recipe page? Jason and I were drinking Baileys and coffee during a visit to Vegas (so we could drink but also STAY ALERT at the craps table, ha!), and on the flight home, we ordered Baileys + coffee on the plane... everyone in our section changed their drink order to the same! π It's how we roll...
Heather (Where's the Beach) says
Oh man - at least you made the best of it!!
spabettie says
indeed π

Hi
I am pretty sure that Baileys Irish Cream has cow dairy in it. I am dairy and gluten free... And used to enjoy the occassional Baileys... But cannot any longer. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Since I have not bought it in a while I cannot check the ingredients.
But I believe it's cram based.

Nancy, If you click on the highlighted Bailey's Irish Cream in her recipe it will send you right to her recipe for vegan Bailey's Irish Cream made with coconut milk. Looks pretty good, though I'll stick to the real stuff.
