• Swap vodka for rum or omit it for a milder, creamier drink.
• Use fresh strawberry syrup or homemade for a more natural flavor.
• Rim the glasses with sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.

FAQs

Can I make this cocktail vegan?

You can substitute the heavy cream with coconut cream or a plant-based cream alternative, and use vegan whipped cream to keep it dairy-free while maintaining richness.

What can I use instead of Baileys Strawberries & Cream?

If you can’t find this flavor, regular Baileys Irish Cream mixed with additional strawberry syrup or fresh pureed strawberries makes a good substitute.
