ADD BASE LAYER: Pour 1 ounce coffee liqueur into a chilled shot glass. This is the heaviest liqueur and should always go in first.
LAYER IRISH CREAM: Slowly pour 1 ounce Irish cream over the back of a spoon or down the inside of the glass so it floats gently on top of the coffee liqueur.
LAYER ORANGE LIQUEUR: Using the same spoon technique, carefully pour 1 ounce orange liqueur on top to create the final layer.
SERVE: Serve immediately. Do not stir.

Notes
Layering Tip: Pour slowly and use a spoon for clean layers. Rushing this step will cause the layers to mix.Glass Tip: A narrow shot glass makes layering easier and more visually striking.Alcohol Note: This shot is smooth and creamy but still strong. Sip or shoot responsibly.Flavor Note: Each layer is meant to be tasted together. The coffee, cream, and orange flavors balance beautifully.
