- Chocolate drizzling works best when the syrup is slightly warmed, allowing it to slide smoothly along the glass interior.
- Chill shot glasses beforehand to keep the cocktail extra cold and enhance the refreshing mint flavor.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute Irish cream with coconut cream and use vegan whipped topping.
- Experiment with different chocolate chip varieties like dark, milk, or white chocolate to customize the shot’s flavor profile.
