Rattlesnake Shot

The Rattlesnake Shot is a visually striking and deliciously sweet drink that’s perfect for any party. The key to its stunning layers is keeping the coffee liqueur and creme de cacao in the freezer until you're ready to serve, and refrigerating the Irish cream. This ensures each layer stays distinct, making the shot as beautiful as it is tasty.

Ingredients

Instructions

Layer the Base:

  • In a shot glass, pour the coffee liqueur as the base layer.

Add the Middle Layer:

  • Carefully layer the creme de cacao on top of the coffee liqueur. Pour it slowly over the back of a spoon for best results.

Top it Off:

  • Finally, layer the Irish cream on top of the creme de cacao, again using the back of a spoon to achieve a distinct separation.

Notes

The Rattlesnake Shot is as delightful to look at as it is to drink. The rich flavors of coffee liqueur and creme de cacao blend perfectly with the smooth, creamy Irish cream, making it a sweet and satisfying shot. Just be careful – it might be too delicious to stop at one!
For the best presentation, ensure your ingredients are chilled appropriately. This will help maintain the layers and enhance the overall experience.
