Mint Chocolate Chip Shot 

Instructions

1. Prepare the Glass

• Drizzle chocolate syrup inside a shot glass, allowing it to drip down the sides for a decorative effect.

2. Mix the Drink

• In a cocktail shaker, combine the crème de menthe, crème de cacao, and Irish cream (if using).
• Add a handful of ice and shake well until the mixture is thoroughly chilled.

3. Strain and Pour

• Strain the mixture into the prepared shot glass, filling it almost to the top.

4. Garnish and Serve

• Top the shot with a small dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle a few mini chocolate chips over the top.
• Serve immediately and enjoy the cool, minty chocolate flavor!

Tips for the Perfect Mint Chocolate Chip Shot

• Green Crème de Menthe: If you want a classic green color, choose the green crème de menthe. Otherwise, the clear version will give a lighter appearance.
• Add Chocolate Liqueur: For a richer chocolate taste, you can substitute the crème de cacao with chocolate liqueur.
• Serve Chilled: Make sure the shot is cold for the best flavor. Shake well with ice and strain before serving.

Variations

• Frozen Mint Chocolate Chip Shot: Blend the ingredients with ice to create a frosty, slushie-like shot for a different texture.
• Non-Alcoholic Version: Use mint-flavored syrup and chocolate syrup in place of the liqueurs, mixed with a splash of milk or cream.
• Mint Chocolate Chip Martini: If you prefer a larger drink, double or triple the recipe and serve it in a martini glass for a delicious dessert cocktail.
