Detailed description
Buttery Nipple is a layered shots built around whiskey. Dessert-in-miniature, with enough nostalgia to earn a permanent shelf spot.
The build centers on 1 oz butterscotch schnapps and 1/2 oz Baileys Irish Cream. In the glass, rich butterscotch coats the tongue up front, followed by a creamy vanilla hush that makes it feel like liquid caramel pudding.
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.
