NEW YORK — The vacation vibes are ready when you are, at-home, on your couch, from your balcony, in your backyard, or even on a coveted weekend getaway. Baileys is gearing up to deliver a delicious addition to your next staycation with the launch of Baileys Colada, a new, limited time offering that tastes just like a tropical vacation in a bottle perfect for enjoying anytime, anywhere this season, from beach brunches to backyard barbecues! Made with Irish Cream and blended with the rich flavors of creamy coconut and sweet pineapple, Baileys Colada makes indulging in everyone’s favorite vacation cocktail easier than ever from wherever you may be.
To celebrate the launch, Baileys is partnering with actress, producer and best-selling author La La Anthony; an entertainer who’s always eager to escape to her number one vacation spot: the beach.
