Where To Find Bailey's In London At Christmas
The Chocolate Cocktail Club
For those of you after Baileys Christmas cocktails, this is the place to be. The Absolutely Fabulous Darling (£10.50) from The Chocolate Cocktail Club pairs the Irish liqueur with kahlua, and chocolate of course. Additionally, the Nutty for Chocolat (£10.50) combines Baileys, gingerbread, amaretto and coconut. These dreamy drinks are just the thing to get you in the festive spirit, and they're beautifully presented too.
Maxwell's Bar & Grill
This Covent Garden favourite is dreaming up new Baileys Christmas flavours in their delicious seasonal cocktails. Maxwell's Bar & Grill is home to the Baileys Banana Colada (£12), which is a mix of the liqueur with Malibu and coconut cream, making for a tropical delight in the cold London winter. Best of all? The venue is beautifully festive too, complete with lights and decorations.
The Alchemist
The Alchemist is known for having a huge array of quirky and excitingly presented cocktails. But did you know that you can get one of the best Baileys drinks in London here too? The Irish (£10.50) is a blend of whisky, coffee, brown sugar, spices and Baileys foam. This is the perfect concoction to put you in a Christmassy mood, thanks to the flavour of gingerbread with a kick of alcohol.
The Bailey's Hotel
If you're looking for Christmas gifts for someone who can't get enough of the stuff, why not take them out for afternoon tea (£36.50) at The Bailey's Hotel in Kensington? This seasonal feast includes Baileys-infused cakes, a flat white martini cocktail and all the classics like finger sandwiches and scones. You can't get better than a venue that's literally named after our favourite festive tipple. Plus, they've whipped up a new drink for the season: a Baileys Festive Chocolate Cocktail. This bends the liqueur with a rich chocolate sauce, finished with chocolate shavings and a shortbread cookie crumb.
