    How long does the creamer keep?

      Conservatively, a week. For myself, I usually keep it as long as the expiration date on my milk/half-and-half/cream.

    Can this coffee creamer be frozen??

      I don't really recommend freezing milk or cream because it separates when it thaws.

    I remember Irish cream to have a minty flavor. I don’t see an ingredient that sod bring
    That Irish cream flavor.

      Nope, no mint flavor. Irish cream is basically Bailey's liqueur. A creamy, chocolate concoction with Irish whiskey.

    I love Irish cream, but can’t use the Bailey’s version in my coffee during the week so I’m excited to try this! Quick question, the ingredients say heavy cream but the instructions say half and half, which one is correct?

    Thank you!!

      The directions should really say cream, but you could substitute half-and-half for the cream if you wanted. It would be a little less rich.
