Anweisungen

Just mix it all together. It's meant to be a shot, but it works just fine as a proper adult-sized drink over lots of ice. Tastes like an oatmeal cookie.

Sweet Creamy

The Oatmeal Cookie is a richly sweet cocktail combining butterscotch schnapps, Baileys Irish Cream, Kahlúa, Jägermeister, and Goldschläger, which together create a flavour profile that genuinely mimics a freshly baked oatmeal cookie. The butterscotch schnapps forms the dominant flavour backbone, while the Baileys adds creaminess and Kahlúa contributes a coffee undercurrent. It can be consumed as a shot or served over ice as a full cocktail.

History & Origins

The Oatmeal Cookie is a novelty cocktail of disputed origin that became popular in American bars and college culture during the 1990s and 2000s, capitalising on the trend of dessert-flavoured shots that taste like specific baked goods. The combination of butterscotch, coffee, and cinnamon liqueurs achieves a convincing approximation of the cookie's flavour profile. No single bar or bartender is definitively credited with the recipe.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Intense butterscotch with sweet coffee from the Kahlúa, a hint of cinnamon from the Goldschläger, and herbal complexity from the Jägermeister. Palate: Overwhelmingly sweet and dessert-like with butterscotch at the fore, backed by creamy Baileys and coffee; Jägermeister introduces an unexpected spice note while Goldschläger adds warmth. Finish: Sweet, warming, and lingering with a complex spiced-cookie character.

Pro Tip

Serve over generous ice in a mason jar to slow the warming of this very sweet cocktail and allow the complex flavours to open up as the drink dilutes slightly.
