Ingredients
These ingredients come together to form a powerhouse of flavor:
-
🥃 1 oz vanilla vodka
-
🥤 1 oz root beer schnapps (or chilled root beer soda for a non-alcoholic version)
-
🍦 ½ oz Irish cream liqueur (like Baileys)
-
🧊 Ice cubes for shaking
Garnish (Optional but Recommended):
-
🍒 Maraschino cherry
-
🍦 Small dollop of whipped cream
-
🍫 Chocolate syrup drizzle (optional for glass rim)
Instructions
Place your shot glasses or mini dessert glasses in the freezer for 5–10 minutes so they’re nice and frosty when serving.
Add a handful of ice cubes to your cocktail shaker to chill the ingredients thoroughly.
Pour in the vanilla vodka and root beer schnapps. This is your fizzy, flavorful base.
Pour in the Irish cream liqueur to give your shot that signature creamy float vibe.
Seal the shaker and shake vigorously for about 10 seconds to fully chill and mix the ingredients.
Strain the drink into chilled shot glasses or mini dessert glasses.
Top each shot with a small swirl of whipped cream and a maraschino cherry. Optional: drizzle with chocolate syrup or rim the glass with crushed cookies or chocolate.
Notes
These shots are best served cold and fresh. Here are a few extra notes:
-
🧊 Use crushed ice if you want your shot colder, faster.
-
🍨 Use freshly made whipped cream if possible for the best flavor and texture.
-
🥶 Don’t over-shake or your cream might get frothy.
-
🥃 To layer the Irish cream gently, pour over the back of a spoon.
