Upgrade your favorite cocktail into ice cream! The Boozy Creamery is the perfect adult treat for any day or occasion. Just add a chilled liquid and alcohol, then whisk and in five minutes it’s ready to go. Available in many fun flavors including Irish Mudslide, Margarita, Mint Mojito, White Russian, and the Boozy Ice Cream Sampler.

I was sent the irish Mudslide packet to check out!

Unfortunately I was out of Bailey's, so I had to sub with what I had on hand:


Cause, you know when you're an Irish family,  Jameson is a pantry sample. LOL


Instead of adding milk, I opted for cream, with a small shot of coffee, instead, since I was using the whiskey, and Bailey's is a thicker liquer. I ended up with a mix that resembled what it should have. Then off for adding air, via the hand mixer, and a subtle addition of some Hershey's Mint Cookie Crunch chocolate broken up into small pieces. The off to the freezer for 4 hours (can freeze from 2-6).


The end result was an ice cream that tasted just like I had added the Bailey's, with a chocolate twist!  And yes, you could taste the alcohol!  

I was really impressed with HOW easy it was to make the ice cream! 
And it was pretty fun to eat too!

On the second serving I tried a little wam coffee over it for an affogato experience! It was YUMMY!
