Indulge in the elegant simplicity of a Baby Guinness, a stunning layered shot that’s as visually striking as it is delicious. This no-cook cocktail takes just 2 minutes to craft and perfectly mimics the look of a foamy pint of Guinness beer, despite containing no stout. Featuring the rich, velvety flavors of coffee liqueur like Kahlúa and the creamy, sweet notes of Irish cream liqueur like Baileys, this drink is an instant crowd-pleaser at parties or a delightful after-dinner treat. The secret lies in the layering technique: using the back of a spoon to float the Irish cream atop the coffee liqueur creates its signature two-tone look. Easy to make yet impressively sophisticated, the Baby Guinness is a must-try for anyone who loves creative cocktails.
Take a 2-ounce shot glass and ensure it is clean and dry.
Pour 1 ounce of coffee liqueur into the shot glass, filling it about three-quarters full.
Using the back of a bar spoon, slowly pour 0.5 ounces of Irish cream liqueur over the coffee liqueur. Hold the spoon just above the surface of the coffee liqueur to ensure the Irish cream floats and creates a separate layer.
Serve immediately and enjoy responsibly.
