Alcohol - Out of Date?I had some Bailey's the other night which was best before November 2006... I know lots of people don't worry about this sort of thing, and I know someone who was drinking Bailey's from 2004!!
What do you reckon? Does alcohol last ages??

Alcohol is often used as a preservative, so I imagine that most alcohols would be safe, and cannot see why (apart from bureaucrascy) that they should have a sell by date.
Bailey’s is more than alcohol, and is probably okay (as you have discovered) but I think I would be more careful with something with added cream.
All this written in Word, because my PC is typing backwards on forums

Should be ok. Plus the cream in Baily's is longlife anyway, so until it's opened it will be fine.

It was already open... and has been for ages... it smelt and tasted fine! Oh well, I haven't died yet...
