Cocktail Tip

Add the ingredients to your cocktail shaker (or jam jar) with cubed ice and shake briskly for about 10 seconds. Strain and pour into a glass leaving the ice in the shaker. This is important for chilling and diluting the drink to the right proportion, plus a fun way to entertain.

Pousse Cafe Glass

picture

Traditionally a sort of narrow, tall cordial glass often to contain a slightly greater volume of liquid than a standard 1 ounce cordial. The Pousse Cafe and its variations were liqueur drinks poured in layers so the heaviest liqueur or syrup would settle in the bottom and progressively lighter (lower specific gravity) liqueurs or spirits would float atop one another creating a layered effect. Pousse Cafes are meant to be sipped one layer at a time. Size: 1.5 ounces
