The other liqueurs were Orange; Irish Cream; Irish Dream; Chopped Almond; and Almond(from extract). I will post these later, because I need to find them. Here are the 3 Kaluha recipes as originally posted - including Bentons' comments/suggestions. By the way, I still haven't made any of these, but I intend to make the Irish Dream this weekend. Take note that some of the quantities in these recipes vary. Enjoy!!!!
