Baileys Strawberries and Cream Cocktail Recipe:

- Baileys Strawberries and Cream Liqueur
- Smirnoff Whipped Cream Vodka
- Strawberries

The whipped cream vodka and strawberries should be available all year round.
How to make Strawberry Simple Syrup:
1. Add 3/4 cup water, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1 cup chopped strawberries to small saucepan
2. Bring mixture to a boil
3. Lightly mash strawberries to release juices
4. Boil an additional minute until infused
5. Remove from heat and strain out strawberries
6. Cool completely before using
7. Store in airtight container up to 1 week
The Glass:
We used this martini glass with a stem to show this pretty drink off. For a more casual approach use a stemless martini glass. Or even a mason jar!
TIP: DO chill the glass at least 15 to 30 minutes in the fridge before building this drink. In the hot summer days a chilled glass will help keep your drink cool a bit longer.
Quick Visual Guide:
Here’s a step by step walkthrough for your yummy strawberries and cream cocktail. Please Also watch our video for a complete recipe demonstration.
Garnishing:
You’ll want to wash and dry a fresh ripe strawberry. Cut it from the narrow point about a third of the way up and set the berry on the side of your glass. Simple and elegant.
Add a sprig of fresh mint to brighten the flavor and give your glass a hint of summertime color.
More Garnish Ideas:
- Roll your damp strawberry in sugar
- Rim the lip of your glass (works best with a stemmed martini glass) with sugar.
- Set your strawberries on a long pick. This works great when you can’t find a really large fresh berry. You can cut the strawberries into pieces and use the mint in layers on the pick. This is less formal and cute!
