These shots are not quite as innocent as their namesakes. They taste just like Girl Scout Thin Mints, but unlike the cookies these drinks pack an alcoholic punch. To learn how to make girl scout cookie shots, read through the steps in this guide.

Girl Scout cookies have provided a source of revenue for the Girl Scouts program for over 80 years. They have long been a favorite dessert for many Americans, and Thin Mints are the most popular variety, accounting for 25% of all cookie sales (Samoas take second place, with 19% of sales). These girl scout cookie shots are designed to taste like Thin Mints, and they come remarkably close.

The following ingredients will make a single Girl Scout cookie shot:

• 1/2 ounce peppermint schnapps
• 1/2 ounce Irish cream (Bailey's is a good choice, but any brand will do)
• 1/2 ounce coffee liqueur (such as Kahlua or Kamora)

For the best taste, chill all ingredients prior to making the shots. You will also need ice, a cocktail shaker and shot glasses.

To make the Girl Scout cookie shots, pour all three liqueurs into a cocktail shaker half-full of ice. Cover tightly with the lid, and shake well. Next, strain into a shot glass (carefully, to avoid spilling). Serve right away, while the shots are still ice cold. Enjoy!

These shots can easily be made into drinks by pouring the liqueurs over ice in a glass, and topping with a few ounces of milk and cream. If you prefer frozen concoctions, you may even pour the aforementioned drink into a blender, set to "ice crush", and blend into a smooth, slushy drink.

• For extra flavor, try adding 1/4 ounce of almond liqueur, such as Amaretto, or a splash of orange-flavored Grand Marnier (or any other orange liqueur).
