Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 ml Coconut milk (full-fat, canned)
- 240 ml Unsweetened almond milk
- 120 ml Coconut cream
- 90 ml Maple syrup
- 2 tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp Instant espresso powder
- 1 tbsp Vanilla extract
- 0.5 tsp Almond extract
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the coconut milk, almond milk, and coconut cream. Whisk together over medium heat until smooth and fully combined.
Add the maple syrup, cocoa powder, espresso powder, and a pinch of salt to the saucepan. Continue whisking until the cocoa powder and espresso dissolve completely.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. This allows the flavors to meld together and the mixture to thicken slightly.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and almond extract.
Allow the vegan Irish cream to cool slightly before transferring it to a glass jar or bottle with a lid.
Once fully cooled, store the Irish cream in the refrigerator for up to 5-7 days. Shake well before serving.
Serve chilled over ice or use it as a creamy addition to coffee or desserts!
