Coffee Liqueur Layer
Irish Cream Layer
Garnish (optional)
Method
Prepare Glass
Select a small shot glass (typically 1.5–2 oz capacity). Chill briefly if desired.
Pour Coffee Liqueur
Float Irish Cream
Layering technique
To create the creamy 'head,' gently pour 0.5 oz Irish cream over the back of a small spoon held just above the surface of the coffee liqueur. Aim to let the cream drip slowly so it floats on top and forms a distinct pale layer. Pour slowly — it should sit as a rounded cap resembling a Guinness pint head.
Finish and Serve
Optionally place a single espresso bean or chocolate-covered espresso bean on top for garnish. Serve immediately as a shooter; drink in one or two sips so the layers are enjoyed together.
