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 and 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…

hi Sam! Bailey’s is NOT vegan, but the one I use here (and link to in recipe) is my homemade vegan version, a VERY good copy of the original. but yes, it is quick to come together (quicker than driving to the store…) so YES, you can enjoy your Bailey’s milkshake! CHEERS!

VEGAN BAILEYS? IS that even possible? You amaze me.
My first ‘big drinking session’ was with Baileys. It has a special place in my heart. this seems much more appropriate and SALTED caramel. YES.
Arman @ thebigmansworld says
and you can totally have this for your teeth!!!!!
Kristina Sloggett says
EXACTLY! that’s what made me share again, I was looking at the recipe to make it, making this TODAAAAAY. 😀
Kristina Sloggett says
it is possible, and tastes identical (I actually like it better, because it is not as… thick?). ah, those first drinking memories… good stuff.

Oh my Irish Cream Love!!! I think this could be lunch for the rest of the week and I’d not tire of it. 🙂
Kristina Sloggett says
I like the way you lunch, Kim!

Anything with Baileys in it has to be delicious.
peabody says
I just made a Bailey’s Milkshake…wish I would have seen this first so I could have added salted caramel!
Kristina Sloggett says
Bailey’s shakes are really good as is, but yes, next time remember the salted caramel! 🙂
Donna says
Well yes, I guess it would work watching the snow fall but…..I live in Florida, so this girl will enjoy this delishious drink on a beach!
Kristina Sloggett says
oooh, enjoy the sun for me, please Donna! it’s icy here 😉
Annette says
Sorry to inform you, but I am celiac and Bailey’s Irish Cream is definitely not gluten-free. Think it is can make people sick. Also, it’s not dairy-free either. 🙁
Kristina Sloggett says
Annette,
thanks for that! as stated in the title and within the post, this is a homemade Irish cream. it is both dairy and gluten free.
marley says
Can you make this without baileys? will it taste as good?
Kristina Sloggett says
I have not made it without – the Bailey’s is a small amount, so omitting it will still give you a nice milkshake – it will be a tasty caramel flavor. cheers!
