A Baby Guinness is a shooter, a style of cocktail, or mixed alcoholic beverage, intended to be consumed in one shot. A Baby Guinness does not contain Guinness stout. Its name is derived from the fact that it is made in such a way as to look like a tiny glass of stout containing Irish cream and coffee liqueur.
Preparation
In a shot glass a portion of coffee liqueur is topped by a layer of Irish cream which is poured over the back of a spoon so that it sits on the coffee liqueur. The ratio of coffee liqueur to Irish cream varies but is generally around 3-to-1. The resulting drink resembles a miniature pint of Guinness stout, with the coffee liqueur serving as the beer and the Irish cream as the head. It is normally served in a shot glass.[1]
Some recipes call for the Irish cream to be whipped then spooned on top of the coffee liqueur in order to look more like the head on a pint of Guinness.[2] Over time, the Baby Guinness became a widely recognized shooter in Irish pubs and beyond, known for its visual resemblance to a miniature Guinness pint.[3][4]
Variations
In some places, a Baby Guinness is served with black Sambuca instead of coffee liqueur[5][6] creating a drink similar to a Slippery Nipple.
