This creamer is great to make ahead! It keeps in the fridge for up to 7 days. Just give it a shake before using since some settling might occur.
How to Make Irish Cream Coffee Creamer
1. Combine the ingredients
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, milk, and sweetened condensed milk until smooth.
2. Add the flavorings
Add the cocoa powder, vanilla extract, almond extract, and instant coffee granules to the bowl. Whisk until everything is fully dissolved and the mixture is creamy.
3. Transfer and store
Pour the creamer into a glass jar or bottle with a lid. Store it in the fridge and give it a good shake before each use.
