FAQ's

Serving suggestions icon

Ingredient substitutions icon

Can I substitute any ingredients in the Naughty But Nice cocktail for similar alternatives?

Yes, if you prefer or need to substitute, consider using a different cream liqueur in place of Bailey's, or a different type of schnapps if butterscotch is not your preference.
