Baileys and Vodka Martini (2024)

This baileys and vodka martini is so easy to make and just plain creamy goodness. This Baileys martini is made with Baileys Irish cream, vodka and cream. It is pure comfort food in co*cktail form. If you love Baileys co*cktails, you are going to fall in love with this martini.

We love whipping up this easy Baileys martini when St Patrick's Day rolls around, but you can also find us sipping on this all year because it is so good.

If you have been following me for a while, you know I love drinking Baileys Irish cream and adding more cream and goodies to it 🙂 In this instance, I wanted to make a really creamy martini and it is good.

If I am not making this Baileys martini, you know I will be whipping up my Baileys milkshake , Baileys eggnog or creamy eggnog martini. I also love just sitting down to a glass of Baileys in the evening just by myself.

Instructions

Making this Bailey martini is so simple. It is all about adding the ingredients into a co*cktail shaker or mason jar and shaking it well.

Steps

1. Measure out Baileys, Vodka and Cream and add to a co*cktail shaker or mason jar with a tight-fitting lid.
2. Add a cup of ice.
3. Shake well for about 1 minute or until the co*cktail shaker feels cold.
4. Pour through a strainer into a martini glass. I use a co*cktail strainer that comes with my co*cktail shaker.
5. Garnish with shaved chocolate. To do this you grate a bar of dark chocolate over a microplane allowing the dark chocolate to fall over a plate. Grab a good pinch of the shaved dark chocolate and sprinkle over the top of the martini.

Tip: When grating the dark chocolate for the garnish, make sure you are using a good-quality dark chocolate.

Substitutions

For this martini recipe, we are using Baileys Irish cream. You can use any Irish cream that you have on hand or can find at the store. There is more than one brand of Irish cream available at most liquor stores.

Variations

While I think this Baileys and vodka martini is perfect as is, you can definitely change out some of the ingredients.

• Make a chocolate Baileys martini - add chocolate liqueur in place of the vodka.
• Baileys and cream martini - If you do not want to add vodka, you can just mix up the Baileys and cream portion of this recipe.
• Baileys and vodka - If you prefer to not use cream, you can just omit it and have a pure Baileys and vodka martini.
