Ingredients
- Sambuca· not in your bar¼ oz
Or swap: Anisette — sweeter, softer, Ouzo — drier, Greek-style anise
- Coffee Liqueur· not in your bar¼ oz
Or swap: Chocolate Liqueur — leans mocha, Coffee Brandy — drier, boozier
- Irish Cream· not in your bar¼ oz
Or swap: Amarula — fruitier, works 1:1
Instructions
This is a layered shot.
First pour the Bailey's into the shot glass.
Then take an upside down spoon and touch it to the inside wall of the glass.
Carefully add the Kahlua.
Repeat this process for the Sambuca.
If done properly, the alcohol will stay separated and resemble a bumble bee.
Enjoy!!!
