Yes. Stir it into hot coffee once it is poured; avoid boiling the liqueur, which can make its cream separate. It also works in iced coffee.

Its cream can split when it meets acidic ingredients such as lemon or lime juice, or very hot liquid. Add it slowly to warm drinks, and avoid mixing it directly with citrus.

It does not usually need refrigeration. Keep the bottle tightly closed in a cool, dark place, and follow the storage and date guidance on the bottle.

Stir it into chocolate cake batter, whipped cream or a cheesecake filling, or drizzle a little over ice cream. For a trifle or tiramisu-style dessert, use it to flavour the cream or soak the sponge.

For a similar creamy flavour, use another Irish cream liqueur. For an alcohol-free option, mix cream with a little coffee and cocoa; it will be less sweet and will not taste of whiskey.

It is a cream liqueur made with Irish whiskey, dairy cream and flavourings such as cocoa and vanilla. Shake the bottle gently before pouring if the contents have settled.
