    What is an Irish breakfast shot?

    An Irish breakfast shot tastes like pancakes and bacon. It has a sweet maple flavor and the smoky flavor of the bacon toes it all together.

    It is a combination of Jameson or another Irish whiskey with butterscotch schnapps and you use orange juice as a chaser. Follow up your drink with the crunch of a piece of bacon.

    The Irish breakfast shot is perfect if you want an alcoholic drink to get your day started. It’s also a fun addition for brunches or other relaxed get togethers.

    The addition of a slice of bacon certainly does make it a unique drink. Sure to be a hit at any occasion.

    You might also like the Uppercut shot or the Chuck Norris Shot.
