Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ounce Chocolate liqueur
- 1 ounce Cherry liqueur (e.g., Cherry Heering or Luxardo)
- 0.5 ounce Heavy cream
- 1 Maraschino cherry (for garnish)
Instructions
Chill a shot glass in the freezer for 5 minutes to ensure a cold and refreshing beverage.
Carefully pour 1 ounce of chocolate liqueur into the chilled shot glass as the bottom layer.
Using the back of a spoon, gently layer 1 ounce of cherry liqueur over the chocolate liqueur by pouring it slowly to avoid mixing the layers.
Rinse and dry the back of the spoon, then repeat the process for the final layer by gently pouring 0.5 ounces of heavy cream over the cherry liqueur, creating distinct layers in the glass.
Garnish the shooter with a maraschino cherry on the rim or skewer it on a cocktail pick and balance it across the top of the shot glass.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
