This faux mini beer is a lush after dinner drink, made to look like a tiny pint of Guinness! I’m not a beer drinker, so this is the closest pint-like drink I’ll enjoy!!

INGREDIENTS

• Kahlua… or your favorite coffee liqueur.
• Bailey’s Irish Cream… or your favorite Irish Cream.
• One or more clear standard shot glass.
• Teaspoon

DIRECTIONS

• Fill a little over half of each shot glass with the coffee liqueur. The idea is to look like a glass of Guinness, so fill approximately 3/4 of the shot glass. (2 parts Kahlua to 1 part Bailey’s)

• SLOWLY & GENTLY pour the Bailey’s over an inverted teaspoon on top of the coffee liqueur. This resembles the head of the Guinness, so be careful not to mix the two ingredients. (I have tried just pouring the Baileys in straight but it ends up looking very cloudy! The spoon trick will work!)

• Serve with an Irish Smile;) ….and always remember eye contact!

Did you know that…………….

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you will have $49.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you will have $33.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you will have $0.00 today.

But, if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refund, you will have received a $214.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg.

A recent study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year.

Another study found that Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.

That means that, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon!

Makes you proud to be an American huh?!
