The new dairy-free Baileys has arrived in Ireland and it’s absolutely delicious

FINALLY!

Baileys have announced the latest addition to their collection and it’s an absolute treat.

That’s right, Baileys Almande – a dairy-free and vegan-friendly edition of the classic coffee liqueur – has officially arrived in Ireland. 

The tipple was first trialled in North America in 2016, but the recipe at the time contained beeswax and could not actually be classified as vegan.

Alterations were made to the recipe, according to Metro, and the product was launched in the UK shortly after.

Since then, it’s gone down a storm – and we can see why.

It’s made with sweet almond oil, almond essence, cane sugar, purified water and a small amount of real vanilla. 

And, if you’re giving it a try, it’s recommended to serve Baileys Almande over ice (and maybe mixed with a dash of coconut water).

Colin Donnelly, Baileys Marketing Manager at Diageo said of the new launch:

“We’re excited to introduce a truly indulgent treat for those who either can’t or choose not to have dairy in their diet.

“Baileys is the world’s most-loved spirit brand and we’re proud to be able to offer a dairy-free alternative with the same quality and delicious flavour that people love about Baileys.”

Baileys Almande is available at Dunnes Stores across the country at €25.
