Equipment

Cocktail Shaker
Shot Glasses

Ingredients

1 ounce Khalúa coffee liqueur
3/4 ounce Orange Juice
1/2 ounce Creme de Cacao

Garnish

Chocolate Frosting optional
Chocolate Sprinkles optional

Instructions

Coat the rim in frosting. Apply a small quantity of frosting evenly to the rim of the shot glass. Alternatively, you can spread the frosting on a flat surface and gently dip the glass rim into it.
Dredge the rim in sprinkles. Dip the frosted rim of the shot glass into the chocolate sprinkles, ensuring the entire edge is coated.
Add the ingredients to a cocktail shaker. Fill a shaker with ice and add Khalúa, orange juice, and Creme de Cacao (if using) to the shaker. Shake the shaker vigorously for about 10 seconds.
Strain. Strain the mixture into the prepared shot glasses.

Notes

Does Khalúa go bad? Kahlúa, like many other liqueurs, has a long shelf life and does not go bad in the sense that it becomes unsafe to consume. However, its flavor and quality can deteriorate over time, about 4 years.

Garnish with a Tootsie Roll. Another garnish option is to add an actual tootsie roll to a cocktail pick and stick it into the shot.

What does a Tootsie Roll shot taste like? A Tootsie Roll Shot boasts a flavor profile reminiscent of the classic Tootsie Roll candy. It features a rich and chocolatey sweetness akin to the candy's cocoa flavor, complemented by subtle coffee undertones.
