Vote for your favorite Drinkable Desserts

Entries have closed in the Drinkable Desserts contest that Bailey's is running to promote their new flavors of the creamy liqueur. Unfortunately, this means that you no longer have the chance to submit your own concoction to be featured in an upcoming issue of Gourmet magazine, but looking to the positive side of things, you still get to try the drinks and have a say in what recipe wins the contest. Between now and January 31st, a selection of different drink recipes will be featured each week. Readers can try out the recipes and vote for their favorites in both the professional and amateur categories. A total of ten finalists will be selected and the overall winners will be selected based on the number of votes (in the amateur category) or by a panel of pros (in the professional category).

Read on to get a taste of one of the drinks, The Baileys® Vanilla Bean:

Baileys® Vanilla Bean
(created by Craig Weiner, Atlanta GA - click here to vote for this recipe)
1 1/2 oz Baileys® Caramel
1 oz Smirnoff® Vanilla - Vodka
1/2 oz butterscotch liqueur
1 (single) espresso

Fill a shaker 3/4 full with ice - add Baileys®, Smirnoff®, butterscotch liqueur, single espresso, splash of half-and-half. Shake and strain into a pre-chilled martini glass.
Optional (but attractive): Garnish with vanilla bean pod down the side of the drink and butterscotch shavings on the top layer of the drink.

Do you say ice cream is not a dessert?
