Baby Guinness shots in little Guinness shot glasses on a wooden serving board with bottles or Bailey's and Kahlua in the background.

This Baby Guinness Shot is a shooter cocktail made with Kahlua Coffee Liqueur and Bailey's Irish Cream to create a delicious shot that looks like a teeny tiny pint of Guinness! It's perfect for parties and St. Patrick's Day!

Ingredients  

  • ounces chilled Kahlua
  • ½ ounce chilled Bailey’s Irish Cream

Instructions

  • Add the Kahlua to a double shot glass, it should be ¾ of the way full.
    1½ ounces chilled Kahlua
  • Hold a bar spoon right over the Kahlua in the glass and very slowly, pour the Irish cream over the back of the spoon to float on top of the Kahlua. Serve immediately.
    ½ ounce chilled Bailey’s Irish Cream

Notes

Make sure you think ahead and have your Kahlua and Bailey’s in the fridge before your guests arrive.
You have to do the spoon trick, or else pouring the Baileys right into the shot glass will force it to mix with the Kahlua. Then you will not have the separation, and it won’t look like a Guinness pint.
It really depends on the size of the shot glasses you are using on how much ingredients to add. If you are using a standard shot glass, then you would use 1.75 ounces of Kahlua to .25 ounces of Baileys.
These shots are sooo good, I like to sip them because they just taste so good instead of throwing them back!
This is not an original recipe, there is no inspiration since this is a classic cocktail.
