Irish Cream Stinger
Popular Restaurant Drink Recipe


Not often, but every now and again, I like to make this Irish Cream
Stinger to enjoy while I'm reading before I retire for the evening.


There is something calming and soothing about the flavors and for
that reason I believe the beverage is poorly named. I don't know
where the name came from.


What I do know is that after having this and reading for a short
time, I close my eyes and sleep through the night.


This restaurant drink recipe is one to sip very slowly and savor.

It was 1971 that Gilbey's of Ireland set out to merge two of Ireland's attributes: fresh milk and
Irish whiskey. Then blending in high quality Belgian chocolate resulted in what we now know as
Bailey's Irish Cream. It is still the best.
