- Irish Cream does not contain honey.
Last Edit
Irish Cream is very popular in the United Kingdom, the number 1 brand of Irish Cream is Baileys, with over 100 million bottles being bought every year. Irish Cream is generally suggested to be served chilled and poured over ice. Irish Cream can be quite high in alcohol, and is a liqueur itself, however in the United Kingdom if it is drank as a shot, or is wanted to be made more alcoholic people will mix Irish Cream with the Italian aniseed-flavored liqueur Sambuca.
Is that accurate? I'm not from the UK myself, I'm American, but I know many people from the UK and they have always suggested quite the opposite. They've all projected a pretty strict "No ice" policy on drinking irish cream, and they've also stated it's more commonly used as a sipping drink and not as a shot.
Also, I'm not sure the line irish cream can be quite high in alcohol is accurate either, at lesat, I've never seen one that's over 15% myself. While that's high in alcohol when compared with drinks with no alcohol I suppose, as far as alcoholic beverages 15% is considered fairly low, where as drinks in the middle usually range around 40%, and the really high ones can go up to 75% or more. --TheJudge310 15:35, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
