How to make this drink:

This drink does take several minutes to make do to the tedious task of layering each ingredient in. But, the time is worth it when you get to see your final masterpiece.

Equipment:

• jigger
• Shot glasses
• bar spoon

Ingredients:

• 1.5 oz Peach Schnapps
• .5 oz Baileys
• Several Drops of Grenadine

Instructions:

Step one

As you get started to grab your bar spoon, jigger, shot glass, grenadine, Irish cream and Peach schnapps.

Step two

Use your jigger to measure one and a half ounces of peach schnapps and dump that into the bottom of your shot glass.

Step three

Use your jigger to measure half an ounce of Irish cream. You’re going to want to layer the Irish cream on top of the schnapps. And it will sink a little bit in creating the brain looking effect.

To do this, take your bar spoon and place it upside down in your shot glass just above the liquid of the peach schnapps. GameStop slowly for the half ounce of Irish cream over the back of your bar spoon.

The key to getting this to layer perfectly is to do it slowly and steadily. You also want to make sure you’re not dumping all the Irish cream in one spot or it may sink to the bottom or stay just on one side. So, you might need to move your bar spoon slowly around over the top of the glass so that it distributes the Irish cream in different places.

Step four

Next, we’re going to add the grenadine which represents some blood droplets in your shot.

To do this, take your bar spoon and turn it upside down again this time just over the top of the Irish cream line. Make sure that you’re grenadine either has a built-in for spout or you pop a pour spout on the top so that it will come out slowly and steadily.

Now, very slowly drip the grenadine over the back of the bar spoon and it should get the cream pulling it slightly down in a drink and the grenadine will sink to the bottom.

If you do not do this extremely slowly and use the bar spoon to break the fall of the grenadine it’s likely that the Irish cream will all get pulled to the bottom of the drink and the brain looking effect will be ruined.

Step Five

With that, your shot is ready go ahead and kick it back!
