No. You are thinking of Grand Marnier.
Drambuie, due to the addition of honey and herbs to fine malt whisky (a waste of whisky if you ask me) is rather sweet and sickly.
Paddy: "2 pints of Guinness, please."
Barman: "Sorry, is a no a here a Guinness. And inna Roma, we don'ta sella pintas. We gotta halfa lita glasses..."
Murphy: "Lets have whatever the Pope drinks, after all, this is his home city."
Paddy: "Sure you're right, Murphy. Barman, what does the Pope drink?"
Barman: "He drinka Creme de Menthe..."
Paddy: "Alright, let's have some of that. Barman, 2 half litres of Creme de menthe, please."
Barman: "2 half litres of Creme de menthe..."
The drinks arrive, and are duly downed...
Murphy: "Hey, Paddy, it's no wonder they have to carry him around in that box-chair thing, is it?"

Liqueurs are best when mixed, I feel.
If you really want a LOVELY shot of liqueur...
2/3 of a shot glass with Bailey's. Then
1/3 of a shot glas with creme de menthe.
It's like drinking an after eight. Gorgeous!!
EDIT: obviously you put both liqueurs in the SAME shot glass...
