Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk and almond milk and gently heat over medium-low heat. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.

Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, almond extract, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.

Step 4

Add the maple syrup and whisk until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Let the mixture cool slightly before adding the Irish whiskey. Stir well to incorporate the whiskey thoroughly into the mixture.

Step 6

Once combined, transfer the liqueur to a clean glass bottle or jar with a tight-fitting lid. Seal and refrigerate.

Step 7

Allow the liqueur to chill for at least 2 hours before serving. Shake well before each use.

Step 8

Serve chilled over ice or use as a base for vegan cocktails.
