Notes

• Flavor variations: If you prefer a more intense chocolate flavor, you can swap the chocolate liqueur for a bit of chocolate syrup. For a more decadent touch, add a splash of heavy cream to make the shot even creamier.
• Non-alcoholic version: For a non-alcoholic version of this shot, you can combine peppermint extract, chocolate syrup, and brewed coffee or espresso. Add cream to mimic the texture of Baileys Irish Cream for a similar effect without the alcohol.
• Make-ahead option: You can pre-mix the ingredients (without ice) in a large pitcher and store it in the fridge until you’re ready to serve. Just shake it with ice and pour into shot glasses when you’re ready to enjoy.
• Garnish suggestions: For a fun garnish, consider topping the shot with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of chocolate shavings. You can also drizzle a little extra chocolate liqueur over the top for an added touch of sweetness.
