Baileys fans go wild for new red velvet flavour – but it’s only launching in America

If we beg hard enough, it may come to the UK...

| Updated:

Baileys has launched a limited-edition flavour and it may be the best yet.

The brand will be selling Red Velvet Cupcake liqueur from October 16 so you can enjoy a glass as well as a cupcake… or two!

In partnership with Georgetown Cupcake, Baileys will be releasing the new flavour and it sounds delicious.

According to Baileys, the red velvet edition contains “aromas of freshly baked red velvet cupcakes, sweet cream, and buttery icing”.

It’s said to taste like “fresh chocolate cake, topped with a dollop of cream cheese frosting and just a hint of cocoa powder”.

The finish has “chocolate and creamy icing flavours”.

Unfortunately for Brits, the drink will only be launching in America.

However, it could always be brought to the UK if it’s an instant hit – which obviously it’s bound to be.

It seems it will already be enjoyed among Baileys lovers as one person wrote on social media: “Wowww that’s awesome.”

Another said: “Wow, definitely buying!!” while a third commented: “Ah that sounds so good!! I’m definitely going to buy!”

Dorothy DeVenecia, brand director of Baileys and liqueurs, Diageo North America, said: “As icons of the modern dessert world, Katherine and Sophie are the masters of what it means to ‘treat yourself.’

We can’t wait for people to enjoy Georgetown Cupcake’s number one selling flavour.

“Born in Ireland in 1974, Baileys was the first spirit to combine cream with Irish whiskey and other fine spirits, so we’re a brand that appreciates and emphasises innovation.

“We can’t wait for people to enjoy Georgetown Cupcake’s number one selling flavour and combined with our delicious liqueur in one delicious treat.”

We recently reported that B&M is selling a Baileys chocolate advent calendar ahead of Christmas this year.

And the best part? It’s only £4.99!
