FAQs about our Baileys French Toast
Baileys Irish Cream Liquor only has 17% alcohol by volume. It is not the same as drinking a hard liquor. So while this boozy french toast recipe is definitely not for children, the low Bailey alcohol percentage really should not get an adult drunk.
Since the Baileys percentage of alcohol is so low, you can NOT put Baileys in the freezer. It will actually become a slushy and will not go back to its original consistency even when defrosted.
