Best tasting
Minimum 1 hour after making but your patience will be hugely rewarded if you wait.
The best time to taste and use is 24 hours after being refrigerated.
Why? Time allows softening of alcohol, so less harsh, the sweetness rounds out, the flavour merges together and thickness stabilises. This liqueur, just like wisdom, improves over time.

Quick Tips for Irish Mint Cream
• Enhance with Spirits: While the cream is already alcoholic, adding 0.5 oz of vodka makes the drink less sweet and more boozy
• Boost the Mint: If your liqueur isn't minty enough, add a tiny splash of sugar free Peppermint Syrup
• Garnish matters: Always finish with a fresh mint leaf or grated dark chocolate to elevate the presentation.
