Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 ounce Green crème de menthe
- 0.5 ounce Baileys Irish Cream
- 0.5 ounce Grand Marnier (or orange liqueur)
Instructions
Take a clean shot glass (preferably 1.5 ounces in size) and ensure it is dry to avoid mixing.
Pour the green crème de menthe into the shot glass, filling it about one-third of the way. This will create the green base layer.
Slowly pour the Baileys Irish Cream over the back of a spoon, holding the spoon close to the surface of the crème de menthe. Let the Baileys flow gently and evenly to create a separate white layer on top of the green.
Finally, use the same technique to layer the Grand Marnier on top of the Baileys Irish Cream. Pour it carefully over the back of the spoon to add the orange layer.
Serve immediately and enjoy this beautifully layered Irish Flag shot!
