Preparation
A portion of coffee liqueur (e.g., Tia Maria, Kahlúa or Patrón Cafe) is topped by a layer of Irish Cream (e.g., Baileys) 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 looks like a miniature pint of Guinness stout, with the coffee liqueur as the beer and the Irish cream as the head. It is normally served in a shot glass.
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.
Variations
In some places a Baby Guinness is often served with black Sambuca instead of coffee liqueur creating a drink similar to a Slippery Nipple.
