Equipment

  • 1 2oz Shot Glass

Ingredients

  • ½ oz Kahlúa
  • ½ oz Baileys Irish Cream
  • ½ oz Grand Marnier or Cointreau

Instructions

  • Pour the coffee liqueur into the shot glass. Try to pour it straight into the bottom so that none is left on the sides of the shot glass.
  • Hold a spoon upside-down in the shot glass so that the tip is just over the coffee liqueur and the handle of the spoon is resting on the rim of the shot glass. Pour the Irish cream slowly over the rounded back of the spoon so that it settles on top of the coffee liqueur.
    Pouring liquor over a spoon to create a layered B-52 shot.
  • Using the same spoon technique, slowly pour the orange liqueur over the Irish cream.

Flaming B-52 Shot (Optional)

  • (optional) Spoon the overproof rum on top of the orange liqueur.
  • (optional) Carefully light the overproof rum with the match. Don’t forget to blow out the flame before drinking!

Notes

  • Use the back of a spoon to pour over so the liqueurs stay near the top when creating the layers.
  • If some of the liqueurs mix, wait a moment for them to settle and separate out before serving.
