A Blow Job shot is a popular party drink that was created in the late 1980s. It gets its titillating title from the way it's consumed and how the ingredients in the shot look. This shot is typically consumed by women and is a bachelorette party staple. With a few ingredients and the right movements, you can make this at your next party![1]

Ingredients

  1. Pour 1/2 an ounce of the coffee liqueur into the shot glass. This should fill about 1/3 of the shot glass.[2]
  2. Gently pour 1 ounce of Irish cream into the shot glass. You don't want to pour it too fast because you want the Irish cream to layer on top of the coffee liqueur. There should be a clear delineation between the two liqueurs.
    • If you are having a hard time getting the liqueurs to stack, try tipping the shot glass to the side and gently tipping the Irish cream over the side of the shot glass. This will help regulate the stream of liqueur and prevent them from combining.[3]
    • Although Irish cream is the most common ingredient, there are variations. Instead of using Irish cream, some people prefer Amaretto almond liqueur or banana and orange liqueur. If you make this variation, use a 1 ounce of Amaretto or 1/2 an ounce of each of banana liqueur and orange liqueur. [4]
  3. Once you have stacked the two liqueurs, you need to top the shot with a dollop of whipped cream. Shake the can well. Tip the can over the shot glass and press down the nozzle. Cover the top of the shot in whipped cream.
    • If it is someone's first time taking a Blow Job shot, bartenders will often put a stemless maraschino cherry on top.[5]

  1. There is a very specific way to take a Blow Job shot. Standing in front of the shot, put your hands behind your back.[6]
    • If you have long hair, you might want to push it behind you or tie it back. You don't want your hair to get in the whipped cream.
  2. Bend over the shot, placing your lips around the edge of the shot glass. Check to see if you have the glass securely in your mouth and your lips cover every edge. You don't want the glass to fall out of your mouth or have the shot spill out on your face.
    • Make sure you place the shot on a surface that you can easily reach with your mouth. You don't want to have to bend over too far to reach the shot glass.
  3. Grasping the shot in your mouth, lift back up. Lean your head back, pouring the shot into your mouth. Pulling your arms from behind your back, take the empty shot glass from your mouth and sit it back on the table.

  • Question
    I've always used amaretto with Irish cream. Is this combination a different shot?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    It's just a matter of preference. Amaretto will make it less sweet and creamy.
  • Question
    If I use both the amaretto and Bailey's,which pours last?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    Amaretto. Bailey's has a higher density, therefore will sink. Pour the amaretto onto the back of a spoon over the Bailey's and it will layer, with the amaretto sitting on top.
