Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ounce Black sambuca liqueur
- 0.5 ounce Blue curaçao liqueur
- 0.5 ounce Baileys Irish Cream
- 2 drops Grenadine syrup
- 0.25 teaspoon Silver edible glitter (optional)
Instructions
Start by chilling a shot glass in the freezer for a few minutes or allow it to chill with ice water before discarding the ice.
Pour the black sambuca into the base of the shot glass to create a dark, rich foundation layer.
Using the back of a spoon, carefully pour the blue curaçao over the sambuca to create the second layer. The spoon should be placed just above the existing layer to ensure the liquids don’t mix.
Next, layer the Baileys Irish Cream on top of the blue curaçao using the same spoon technique for the final creamy layer.
Add two drops of grenadine over the top layer. The grenadine will sink slowly, creating red streaks reminiscent of swirling oil slicks.
Optional: To enhance the shimmering effect, sprinkle a tiny amount of silver edible glitter on top for a metallic, oil-like sheen.
Serve immediately and enjoy this stunning layered cocktail!
