5 minThis isn’t your standard Irish cream. We’re spiking scotch whiskey with coconut extract and chocolate syrup for a tropical-meets-cocoa vibe that’s richer and more interesting than anything in a store bottle.
Blend it all with fresh eggs, evaporated milk, and heavy cream, then let it mellow overnight in the fridge.
The result is silky, indulgent, and dangerously smooth, with a hint of coconut that plays beautifully against the chocolate.
Pour it over ice, stir into coffee, or drizzle over ice cream for a boozy dessert sauce that’ll have everyone asking for the recipe.
Kitchen Tips
- Use fresh eggs: Since these eggs stay raw, make sure they’re fresh and from a trusted source. The alcohol helps preserve the mixture, but freshness matters.
- Chill overnight: Letting the liqueur rest in the fridge lets the flavors marry and the texture turn velvety smooth.
- Store properly: Keep refrigerated in a sealed bottle for up to 2 weeks. Give it a gentle shake before serving since it may separate slightly.
- Adjust sweetness: Taste before bottling. If you like it sweeter, add another tablespoon of chocolate syrup and blend again.
Variations
- Mocha version: Add 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder to the blender for a coffee-chocolate-coconut trifecta.
- Extra creamy: Swap half the evaporated milk for sweetened condensed milk for a thicker, dessert-like liqueur.
- Tropical boost: Use rum instead of scotch and add a splash of pineapple juice for a piña colada vibe.
