Steps
Steps
- 1Chill the three liqueurs beforehand; cold liqueurs are thicker and layer more cleanly.
- 2Pour the coffee liqueur into a tall shot glass — as the densest, it always goes first.
- 3Hold a bar spoon upside down just above the coffee layer, touching the inside of the glass, and pour the Irish cream very slowly over its back.
- 4Raise the spoon to just above the cream and pour the orange liqueur the same way to form the top layer.
- 5Serve at once, before the layers begin to bleed into each other.
