You know I’m celebrating National Irish Coffee Day today with my favourite Irish Cream from @fivefarmsirishcream . There are two main recipes for Irish coffee: 1. Add whiskey to brewed coffee; add sugar and cream if you’d like. 2. Add Irish cream liqueur to brewed coffee or espresso shots. Either way, you’re going to get a delicious beverage that’s cozy and warm. I’ll be drinking mine as the espresso and liqueur combo, as I’m still fully enamoured with the @nespressousa I got for Christmas. Pro tip: pull your espresso shot into a warmed glass, then pour the Irish cream over a spoon that’s just touching the side of the glass for that cool layering effect.

【Ｂｕｉｌｄ】 •¥• Directo. • Montado. • Três formas, três línguas, o mesmo método para fazer coquetéis. • Então vamos destrinchar e conhecer essa #Modalidade de cocktail! • Coquetéis montados, são aqueles executados diretamente no copo em que serão servidos. • Sua maior vantagem é a velocidade no serviço, e falta de exigência por equipamentos mais complexos em sua execução. • Pode preparar receitas, quentes ou frias, tendo baixa taxa de diluição na última. Não agrega ar a bebida, então não altera a textura dos ingredientes e é ideal para insumos de densidades semelhantes e carbonatados. • Porém ao usar ingredientes de diferentes densidades, pôde-se atingir o efeito de camadas em sua bebida, técnicas conhecidas como #float , #pousse-café ou #layeredDrink . • Gerando um belo efeito visual, mas aviso é preciso conhecer bem suas bebidas, para realizar bem essas técnicas. • Coquetéis em camadas tiveram seu auge nos anos 80, e alguns exemplos famosos são: • #SexOnTheBeach - com camada no fundo. #NYsour - com camada superior. #B52 - em que todos seus ingredientes são servidos em camadas. • Fica dica, licores com açúcar mais dissolvidos e menos alcoólicos tendem a ser mais densos. • Fala meu povo!!! Gostou de saber que coquetéis assim como Shrek podem ter camadas? Rs Espero que meus pequenos textos e dicas sobre #CulturaEtilica estejam sendo úteis. Se gostou, curti, compartilha com coleguinha e salva pra ler depois, que isso fortalece e incentiva o trabalho!

Angel’s Kiss / Angel’s Delight

I got these lovely cordial glasses and have been using them to make these pretty drinks known as Pousse-Cafe. These drinks are very difficult to pour without having the layers mix, especially with certain liqueurs.That has required me to adjust the positioning of layers because the specific weights of liqueurs are different than those in the original recipe. Getting them out of order causes them to flip their positions and mix. This post is a two-for-one because these drinks are both "Angel" drinks and Pousse-Cafe, which puts them on the same page of the New York Bartender's Guide. First the Angel's Kiss (left). It begins with white creme de cacao. But sloe gin, which follows is lighter than even fatty half-and-half, it has to come third. Sloe gin is a blend of sloeberry liqueur and gin, so it tends to break up by the weight of its ingredients. You'll see it blend down into the cream and up into the brandy in the tall glass. So the recipes that follow take this into account.

See both recipes here.

Try the layered White Russian. It’s a striking departure from the standard or classic version. It really let’s the Vodka and kahlua come through. #layereddrinks #whiterussian #classiccocktails https://www.instagram.com/p/BuuBSz5AWcl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kfuliw26y76q

Chocolate Tier Cake

Just like a baker makes a tier cake, this cocktail is layered with a distinct flavor on each floor. You can really see the definition between these layers here because of a technique I perfected; pouring each ingredient down the back of a measuring spoon handle while the spoon rests in the bottom of the glass.

I again had to change the order in which the spirits are poured because I used half and half. I'm sure that the heavy cream that the recipe calls for will work whether floated on top or nestled in the middle because it is fatty and hot brandy will rise over it or lay beneath it. But I wanted to use dark creme de cacao and use the cream layer to help contrast two brown spirits.

See the recipe here.
