Ingredients:
- 1/3 Kahlua
- 1/3 Baileys
- 1/3 Cointreau
Instructions:
Layer in a shot glass in that order. Carefully.
If you want to see how it’s done, this video from VideoJug shows the technique. I think mine looks even better than the one in the video (if I do say so myself).
Here’s another video that shows how not to do it.
This drink can also be made with Grand Marnier or triple sec instead of the Cointreau (all are orange liquers), with Tia Maria instead of Kahlua, and with any Irish Cream or Amarula instead of Baileys.
There are lots of related variants as well, although they are not as well standardised. You can find the same recipe under different names (and vice versa) all over the web. For instance, the Cointreau can be replaced with vodka (B-53) amaretto (B-54), creme de menthe or peppermint schnapps (B-57) or black sambuca (Bumble Bee).
Since I inherited Steve’s alcohol collection, I thought I should make use of it, so expect more random cocktails over the coming months.

This has to be one of my favourite shots of all time. Another favourite is the cock-sucking cowboy. Not sure why.

Firstly Stephen that just screams innuendo and secondly that’s a very clinical explanation for a shot. Where’s the emotion, where’s the taste test, whereas the facial expression as the fourth one passes your lips within 7 minutes.

Indeed. I would very much like to see his expression as the fourth cocksucking cowboy passes his lips.
Who’s gonna round up a few cowboys?

I feel like Im trapped in an elevator but I cant blame anyone because I choose to take the lift in the first place when there were perfectly good stairs.

Haha, the cock sucking cowboy (or buttery nipple to some) is a layered shot of butterscotch schnapps & baileys. It’s a very smooth shot, many people like it.
When I gave that shot to someone who shall remain nameless he exclaimed “wow, it goes down really smooth!”

I made both a buttery nipple and a cocksucking cowboy last night and was going to post photos, but unfortunately my camera was out of batteries. I will have pictures tonight, I promise.
