METHOD

STEP BY STEP

STEP 1

STEP 2

Pour Kahlua into shot glass to about 1/2 full. 2.

STEP 3

Using a spoon(inverted), slowly pour in the Peppermint Schnapps until glass is about 3/4 full.

STEP 4

Done correctly, the Schnapps will flow under the Kahlua for a clear layer. 3.

STEP 5

Again using a spoon, but this time right side up, slowly top off the glass with a layer of Bailey's.

STEP 6

Be careful to place the spoon right at the top of the Kahlua layer and to raise it as the glass fills up.

STEP 7

Done correctly, this will provide a layer of Bailey's floating over the Kahlua. 4.

STEP 8

Toss it down all at once for something like a Peppermint Pattie, WITH A BANG!!!
