Ingredients

• 0.5 oz Coffee liqueur (e.g., Kahlúa)
• 0.5 oz Irish cream liqueur (e.g., Baileys)

Directions

Step 1

Start with a clean, clear shot glass to highlight the layering effect of the cocktail.

Step 2

Pour 0.5 oz of coffee liqueur into the shot glass. This will serve as the bottom layer of the drink because it is the heaviest.

Step 3

Using the back of a bar spoon to assist with layering, slowly pour 0.5 oz of Irish cream liqueur over the coffee liqueur. Be careful to pour gently to keep the layers distinct.

Step 4

Repeat the process with the orange liqueur, slowly pouring 0.5 oz over the Irish cream layer using the back of the spoon. Ensure a steady hand to maintain the layered appearance.

Step 5

Serve immediately and enjoy the beautiful presentation before consuming the shot!
