Simple Irish Cream Stuff Recipe

Indulge in this creamy, dreamy Irish Cream liqueur, a family favorite passed down through generations! This easy recipe uses a can of condensed milk as the perfect measuring guide for the right balance of water and whiskey. Discover the secret: cheaper whiskey actually works best (but not *too* cheap!). This recipe uses the richness of condensed milk (think Winnie-the-Pooh's favorite!), so be sure to grab a can of Nestlé or Frussell's. For a coffee twist (untested, but promising!), swap one can of water for a can of strong coffee! Makes approximately 2.5 US pints.
