Baileys is a popular alcoholic drink that is sold in Ghana. It is a favorite among many people in the country. Baileys has been around since 1974 and it was first introduced to the Ghanaian market in the 1990s. The drink was originally created as a dairy cream liqueur by Irishman, Maurice Walsh. The name Baileys is derived from his wife’s maiden name, Elizabeth “Betty” Gray.
Baileys was the first Irish Cream Liqueur in the world, created in 1971 by Tom Jago for International Distillers and Vintners, a distillery and brewery conglomerate. The secret recipe calls for a blend of homogenized Irish whiskies and cream, as well as a secret cocoa extract, sugar, and herbs.
It has a low ABV of 17% and can be consumed neat, chilled, or over ice, as well as added to coffees and teas or used as a component in dessert cocktails. It’s also commonly used to make cakes and other dessert confections. It tastes extremely sweet and has a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. There are flavors of chocolate, toffee, and a faint nuttiness.
Despite the fact that cream is the main ingredient, a bottle of Baileys has a shelf life of 24 months from the date of manufacture. Whether sealed or opened, refrigerated or not, a bottle will be safe to drink for two years if kept between 32 and 74 degrees Fahrenheit. This is because the alcohol content preserves the dairy products rather than adding artificial preservatives.
