Nevermind soy or Bailey’s, you use milk instead of cream or half-and-half? All the White Russians I made without some kind of cream (cow, soy etc.) sucked. I suppose Bailey’s would add some cream content …
When there was planning and forethought going into the White Russian, we used to use cream. But it quickly became such a preferred drink, that we didn’t always have cream at the ready, and it became a bit too fattening in the long run. So we started just using milk, because that’s what we always had around anyway. But then I stopped buying milk, and changed it out for oat and soy, so that’s what we’ve used since then, and now I’ve really developed a taste for the vanilla soy White Russian.
For me personally, there’s no doubt that a White Russian with cream is the best. But it’s more of a special treat, nowadays.

Fair enough. Cream is definitely a big reason why I don’t drink it more often.
