Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 ounce Irish cream liqueur
- 0.5 ounce Butterscotch schnapps
- 0.5 ounce Cinnamon schnapps
- 0.25 ounce Heavy cream
- 1 pinch Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Crushed graham crackers
- 1 teaspoon Orange zest (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the shot glass by rimming it with crushed graham crackers. To do this, lightly moisten the rim of the glass with water or a citrus wedge, then dip the rim into a plate of crushed graham crackers until evenly coated.
In a cocktail shaker, combine Irish cream liqueur, butterscotch schnapps, cinnamon schnapps, and heavy cream.
Fill the shaker halfway with ice and shake vigorously for 15–20 seconds to chill and mix the ingredients thoroughly.
Strain the mixture into your prepared shot glass.
Sprinkle a small pinch of ground cinnamon on top for added spice and warmth.
Optional: Garnish with a tiny sprinkle of orange zest for a bright citrus note.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
