Are you a connoisseur of the non-trivial? Alcoholic aesthete? Take on board the "Slippery Nipples" cocktail based on the most fragrant sambuca. This shot will certainly become the headliner of your holiday. For this delicious drink, small glasses with a thick bottom are suitable, because according to the rules it is served in very small doses, like a fragrant precious drug, refined and exclusive, a large container is not suitable for it. The best option would be glasses in which sambuca is served, thanks to them the anise-cream flavor of the cocktail will be perfectly preserved.

Somehow it is believed that this shot is a kind of echo of the punk culture that was born in the 70s of the last century (namely 1975-06-11) along with the performance of the legendary Sex Pistols. Let's try cooking it!

A little about Sambuca

MostlyIn some cases, this divine liquor is made using herbs and star anise, as well as elder flowers, and sometimes other components are added to it that change the color of the drink. The density of sambuca allows you to create multilayer shots on its basis, but most often the drink is drunk in its pure form, setting it on fire.

What you need for cooking

In addition to a great mood and a desire to please loved ones, guests and friends, we need the following ingredients to make the Slippery Nipples cocktail.

Ingredients	Volume
Classic Sambuca	25ml
Irish Cream liqueur Carolans	25ml
Grenadine Syrup Monin	1ml

You also need a stack, straws and a cocktail (bar) spoon. It can be seen from the set of ingredients that we have nothing complicated to prepare.

Slippery Nipple Cocktail Recipe

• Pour 25 milliliters of sambuca into a small shot.
• Using a cocktail spoon, carefully pour a 25 ml layer of Irish Cream on top.
• Take a straw and pour 1 milliliter of syrup directly into the center of the shot.

The main thing is not to break the layers, the tube must be lowered into the cocktail strictly vertically, to the middle of the layer consisting of sambuca. It is unacceptable to chat and shake it in a glass, otherwise the Irish Cream will spread and the cocktail will lose itsview.

Serve with straws, outwardly the cocktail will become disarmingly luxurious!

What they say

According to reviews of the "Slippery Nipples" cocktail, one can understand that the drink is very sweet, creamy, creamy, delicate, and, despite the rude name, it suits both gentle young ladies and young men. And the name will add piquancy and a cheerful mood. And maybe melt the icy heart of some "snow queen".

An extravagant drink option

Slippery Nipples can also be improved by adding a cherry to the rim of the glass and sprinkling it with powdered sugar. After the contents are drunk, you can have a bite of a berry.

There is another variation of the famous drink with rare alcohol "Caramel Schnapps". It (20 ml), Mexican liqueur "Kalua" (20 ml) and "Baileys" (20 ml) must be carefully poured into a glass with a thin knife, and preferably with a special bar spoon.

If you can't use expensive ingredients, you can always go for the trick. "Irish Cream" can be replaced with Baileys liqueur, and the elite pomegranate syrup "Grenadine" with thick rosehip syrup. In appearance, your innovation will not be different, but, of course, knowledgeable people and connoisseurs will immediately notice the loss of taste.

It is reported that in many bars the Slippery Nipples cocktail is served without syrup.
