The recipe for this Amaretto White Cream Liqueur was (once again) borne out of pure selfishness! I wanted to be able to enjoy a cream liqueur like the Disaronno Velvet too. So I did what any needy dairy intolerant person would do, and made my own recipe.

But wait for the bonus – only 4 ingredients are needed to make a litre of Amaretto White Cream Liqueur (5 if you’re making your own vegan condensed milk).

A bottle of Disaronno Velvet costs £16.00rrp. My Amaretto White Cream Liqueur costs £5.75 for a litre if you make your own condensed milk and no more than £8.00 per litre if you buy ready made condensed milk*.

Is Amaretto White Cream Liqueur dairy free?

This recipe is dairy free as I’ve stated but the shop version has milk in it (not cream as you may expect, just milk). As far as I can tell with the research I have done there are no other Amaretto style cream liqueurs on the market, certainly not in her UK.

Does this taste like Disaronno Velvet?

Good question, obviously I have not been able to try Disaronno Velvet myself as it contains milk so I can’t comment on the flavour. It is however naturally gluten free. Ocado describe its flavour below;

Disaronno Velvet is a distinctly smooth light creamy liqueur that seduces your senses with toasted almonds, apricot, vanilla and a hint of toffee.

Ocado

How would I describe the flavour of my Amaretto White Cream Liqueur? It is an intense creamy flavour with almond and marzipan flavours not unlike Bakewell Tart!

How to make vegan condensed milk

If you can be bothered I would strongly recommend making your own vegan condensed milk. There are a couple of reasons as to why. First, it’s way cheaper to make your own with a 90p tin of coconut milk (65%+ coconut extract) and some caster sugar. Second, it adds to the sense of accomplishment. Third, once you know how to make your own (it’s ridiculously easy) you will open up the door to so many more recipes.

Dairy Free and Vegan Condensed Milk Recipe

Empty a 400ml tin of coconut milk into a medium saucepan, add 150g caster sugar and stir to combine. Place on a high heat and stir until bubbling. Turn heat down to a gentle rolling boil and leave for 15 minutes. Don’t leave unattended and stir occasionally, the condensed milk will halve in volume and go a wallpaper paste colour! Remove from the heat, pour into a glass heatproof jug and cool to room temperature, this will take about an hour.

Dairy Free Cream Liqueur recipes

You may have sensed my love of cream liqueurs in the opening paragraph. I hold my hands up when I say I am a Bailey’s addict. Scrap that, addict is a strong word, I enjoy a glass or three during the festive season.

But, as more and more cream liqueurs come out on the market, I find myself experiencing cream liqueur FOMO (fear of missing out for those who don’t know). As producers keep them coming, I’ll keep trying to recreate them with my personal homemade dairy free and vegan recipes.

Speaking of recipes, here are a few I prepared earlier;

Homemade Dairy Free Baileys
This Homemade Dairy Free and Vegan Baileys Recipe is simple to follow showing you how to make (in my opinion) the most delicious creamy liqueur there ever was! This recipe will keep for up to 2 weeks in the fridge. But, honestly who's going to keep it for that long?

I have an account with The Vegan Kind and do most of my dairy free and vegan shopping when it comes to stocking up for ingredients. Buying in bulk is cheaper and you get points for purchases too. If you use the link I get a few pennies as I am now an affiliate for TVK. They also have heaps of gluten free products too so well worth a look if you and your family have complex dietary needs.

Are spirits safe for coeliacs?

This comes up a lot on social media and in forums. I thought I’d use the opportunity to quote Coeliac UK to clarify the do’s and don’ts of Spirits.

Are Spirits Gluten Free?

Cider, wine, sherry, spirits, port and liqueurs are gluten free.

Experts agree that there is no physical way that pure distilled alcohol can contain gluten – this is because the gluten protein cannot travel through to the vapour produced by the prolonged heating in the distillation process and become part of the final alcohol product.

Distilled spirits only contain gluten if gluten containing ingredients are added after the distillation process and in this case, there is labelling legislation that ensures the product states CONTAINS wheat, barley, rye or oats on the label.

Source – Coeliac UK FAQ page for more answers to top gluten free questions follow the link Coeliac UK FAQ’s

Please note: some people are also intolerant to certain grains such as barley, rye and oats so even with the gluten removed this can cause digestive issues. If concerned please consult your doctor.

Equipment

  • 1L glass bottle
  • bottle funnel
  • smoothie maker/blender
  • rustic gift tags optional if you plan to make as a gift

Ingredients
  

For the vegan condensed milk (makes 250g)

  • 1 400ml tin tin coconut milk needs to be 60% or over in coconut extract needs to be 65% or over in coconut extract
  • 150 g Caster Sugar

other ingredients

  • 200 ml almond liqueur or a supermarket Amaretto
  • 250 ml dairy free milk
  • 250 ml soya cream or usual dairy free alternative

Instructions
 

To make the condensed 'milk'

  • Tip the contents of the tinned coconut milk into a large saucepan.
  • Add the 150g caster sugar and stir to combine, the liquid may appear lumpy unless you buy the creamed milk version, don't worry if it is lumpy.
  • Turn the hob onto full heat and stir until all the coconut lumps have melted, then leave to boil for 20 minutes.
  • Stir occasionally as the liquid reduces. You want to keep the liquid at a rapid/rolling boil stage (bubbles rolling into the centre of the pan from the edges) 
  • Remove the pan from the heat after 20 minutes, pour into a jug and set on a window sill to cool.

To make the Amaretto White Cream Liqueur

  • Measure out the 'cream' and 'milk' into a blender.
  • Add the cooled condensed ‘milk’ and blend.
  • Finally pour in the measured Disaronno and give the liqueur a final blend.
  • Pour into a 1ltr container (you may have a bonus 50ml just for you to celebrate your successful alchemy) Pop in the fridge and serve over ice when cooled.

Notes

This will keep in the fridge for well over 2 weeks…if indeed it lasts that long!

    Disaronno Velvet? Why have I not heard of this. It sounds amazing. But actually your version sounds even better. What a genius you are. Will have to give this a go. I have a bottle of amaretto somewhere.

    BTW, keep meaning to say that your about me photo is fab. I always get caught up in your excitement and want to rush down to the kitchen immediately.

    Well, I think a bit of selfishness is called for when it comes to your favourite festive drink. I’m a huge Amaretto fan, but I’ve never tried a cream version. This sounds even better with coconut milk.
