Baby Guinness

Baby Guinness is a popular shooter cocktail that resembles a miniature pint of Guinness stout. Despite its name, it does not contain any beer or Guinness.

Ingredients

The Baby Guinness is typically made with the following ingredients:

• Coffee liqueur (such as Kahlúa or Tia Maria)
• Irish cream (such as Baileys Irish Cream)

Preparation

The preparation of a Baby Guinness involves the following steps:

1. Pour the coffee liqueur into a shot glass, filling it about three-quarters full.
2. Carefully layer the Irish cream on top of the coffee liqueur by pouring it over the back of a spoon. This creates a distinct separation between the two layers, with the Irish cream resembling the frothy head of a pint of Guinness.

Variations

There are several variations of the Baby Guinness, including:

• Using different types of coffee liqueur or Irish cream to alter the flavor profile.
• Adding a splash of whiskey for an extra kick.

Serving

Baby Guinness is typically served as a shooter in a shot glass. It is popular at parties and bars due to its unique appearance and sweet, creamy taste.
