Drain the water out as much as you can. Pour the Bailey's Irish Cream over the ice. Add the Dreyer's Slow Churned Coffee Ice Cream. (I use Dreyer's Slow Churned because it has great flavor and has been slow churned. Ice cream that is not slow churned is airy and would become frothy in the shake.)

Next find every adorable mini glass or food safe tea light candle holder you own and fill with your delicious shakes. It's okay if the glasses don't match. That's part of the charm-at least that's what my friends have said.

Pull out your dusty candle holder and clean it well. Next, figure out which glasses will fit inside the candle holders. Buy some of those life-changing red and white paper straws everyone is using and cut a bunch of them in half. Finally, find some festive red and white polka dot napkins (I do love polka dots) to match, string some lights and ornaments and voila! The perfect greeting for your guests.

If you would like to make nonalcoholic shakes, just substitute the Bailey's with some store bought Starbucks Frappaccino.
