10 Kahlua and Baileys Shots

There’s a bit of an art to making the B-52, as the part of the fun of this shooter are the perfectly placed layers of each liqueur. You want to start by adding the first layer of Kahlua to your shot glass. The next step is where things get a little tricky. 

You want to layer the liqueurs to sit on top of each other instead of blending together. Irish cream can curdle a bit when mixed with some other spirits, so you either want to layer it or blend it well in a cocktail shaker. In this shot, it’s all about the layering. 

The easiest way to layer your shots is to use the back of a spoon. Place the spoon inside the shot glass and carefully pour Bailey’s Irish Cream over the back of the spoon. This will help the Baileys sit on top of the Kahlua. Next, repeat with the Grand Marnier or orange liqueur of your choice. Even if your layering technique isn’t perfect, this is still one tasty shot!

Tiramisu is a decadent dessert, but this recipe for tiramisu shooters might just give the dessert a run for its money. It features all the tiramisu flavors at a fraction of the prep time.

This is a layered shot, so you want to use the spoon technique to pour each one slowly into the shot glass. Trust us. The effort is totally worth it! 

What’s the story behind the duck fart shot? Rumor has it that the duck fart shot is a famous drink in Alaska and that it was created on a slow night in a bar. We’ll pass on the details of how exactly this drink got its name and instead focus on the taste – which is delicious! 

With this shot, you want to add layers of Kahlua and Baileys. To give this one a bit of an edge, the last layer that you pour in is whiskey.

This drink leaves a nice caramel flavor in your mouth, making it the perfect sweet treat with a bite.
