  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Start by chilling a pint glass or a large cocktail glass in the freezer for about 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine 1.5 oz of Irish whiskey, 0.5 oz of sloe gin, 0.5 oz of fresh lime juice, and 0.25 oz of allspice dram.

  3. 3

    Add Bitters

    Add 2 dashes of orange bitters to the shaker.

  4. 4

    Shake Well

    Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.

  5. 5

    Strain and Pour

    Strain the mixture into the chilled glass, leaving some space for the Guinness.

  6. 6

    Top with Guinness
