Have a Drink

Between in-laws, seating charts and the bridesmaid that's suddenly MIA, you need a cocktail. STAT. As in this is a potential medical emergency. Luckily, Baileys lrish Cream liqueur has a new flavor that is sure to take the edge: Baileys Irish Cream with a Hint of Coffee.

It can be enjoyed on the rocks like an iced coffee or blended with ice and served up like your favorite frappe—with a kick. For those b-to-b's that don't enjoy coffee, like myself, they also carry a caramel and mint chocolate flavor. D-lish.

Here are 3 popular ways to enjoy this classic liqueur; all recipes courtesy of Baileys.
