Cream liqueur how long do they last for?

I'm got a huge bottle of Amarula in the fridge as well as a bottle of Dooley's, I'm sure I've had them in there going on 2 years since they were opened.

I've had a taste of the Dooley's and it tastes perfectly fine to me, opening the Amarula there was a slight amount of gas that escaped, tastes it and wasn't 100% sure about, very strong taste of alcohol in that one.

Would you still drink them?

Would you still drink them?

Yes, generally if it's been opened a few times and it's been kept cold it should be ok.. first taste will tell you if it's off.

I once drank a bottle of Baileys that was about 3 years out of date, though it hadn't been opened. It was perfectly fine.

I can't imagine the willpower to have a bottle in the house that long without touching it

As much as I love the stuff I've got IBS and much of it my body isn't happy lol, and a small amount of alcohol knocks me out.

Throw it out immediately.

Replace it with beer and bourbon whiskey, you'll be so much more manly.

Enjoy your trip to the toilet if you do decide to drink them

Found a bottle of Baileys half drunk and it had a best before 2 years ago- must have bought it 4 years ago.

Fine. Think the dark bottle helps

it’s fairly obvious when Baileys goes off - it tastes like off milk and goes lumpy! The best before date is a bit of a guide if the bottle is unopened - definitely had some that was over a year out of date. Kept in the fridge it should last longer I guess.
