Detailed description
Baby Guinness is a layered shots built around coffee liqueur. Tiny stout illusion, huge personality, and a guaranteed conversation starter.
The build centers on 1 oz coffee liqueur and 1/2 oz Baileys Irish Cream. In the glass, dark roasted sweetness fills the base, and the Baileys cap lands like fresh cream on espresso, smooth and slightly decadent.
It comes together in 4 minutes and is served in a shot glass. Chill the ingredients first and pour them slowly into a shot glass if you want clean visual layers.
