📜 History

The Baby Guinness is a visual shot designed to look like a tiny pint of Guinness beer. Dark Kahlua forms the stout body while carefully floated Irish cream creates the creamy head. Despite containing no beer, its a favorite at Irish pubs and St. Patricks Day celebrations. The presentation is half the appeal.
