London-based fashion designers Felder Felder, may typically be renowned for their bold, modern and sexy aesthetic, but as style consultants for the Original Irish Cream Liqueur, Baileys® this Christmas the twins have designed three festive cocktail recipes, featuring classic tastes of Christmas.

50ml Baileys®
25ml Grand Marnier®
Cinnamon stick and powder

50ml Baileys® with a hint of Coffee
1 Shot of espresso
90ml Sugar syrup
90ml Whipping cream

The Baileys Snowflake
Ingredients
25ml Baileys® Biscotti Flavour
10ml Smirnoff® Vanilla Vodka
10ml Butterscotch schnapps
50ml Single cream
Method
Add the spirits and cream to a cocktail shaker. Fill a separate pint glass with ice cubes, and shake the two together with a bartender’s flourish. Pour the mixture through the cocktail strainer into a chilled martini glass.
For an extra special touch…before pouring the cocktail into the glass, dip the top of the glass in a small saucer of water so that 1 or 2mm of the glass is covered. Then dip the wet glass rim into a dusting of coconut shavings. Carefully turn the glass around the right way and pour in the delicious Baileys cocktail – being sure not to lose any of the coconut around the top.
