Tips and Tricks for Making The Best Dirty Girl Scout Shots
- Start with Chilled Ingredients: If your vodka, Bailey's, and Creme de Menthe are cold before mixing, you won't need to add any ice to the shaker.
- Use Green Creme de Menthe: This minty liqueur does come in a clear version, but if you want the green effect, use the classic. If all you have is clear, add a drop of green food coloring!
- Instead of Vodka, try using creme de cacao or Kahlua instead. The shot will have a slightly "dirtier" color, but will still be delicious.
- Drink Up! Enjoy Dirty Girl Scout shots right after mixing them, as you'll find that the ingredients start to separate if you leave them too long.
- Add a Snack: Top each shot with a Thin Mint cookie (or a similar chocolate mint cookie) for an added treat.
- A Pretty Garnish: Mint leaves are totally optional in this recipe. They do make your green drink look very pretty though!
