Make a Slippery Nipple Layered Shooter
A Slippery Nipple is a layered shooter (or shot) that is made by first layering Baileys Irish Cream over Sambuca. Less Baileys is used then Sambuca because a thin layer of Baileys is created over the Sambuca. Then a drop of grenadine is dripped onto the layer of Baileys, creating a red indentation in the layer of Baileys that looks like a nipple.
Ingredients
- 3/4 oz (22.5 mL) Sambuca
- 1/4 oz (7.5 mL) Baileys Irish Cream
- Drop grenadine
Steps
- Set a shot glass or cordial glass on a table.
- Estimate the capacity (volume) the shot glass or cordial glass. This can be done by eye or with measuring cups. The Sambuca will take up a about three-fourths of the glass, and the Baileys Irish Cream will take up about one fourth of the glass. The grenadine will take up a negligible amount of the glass. You don't want to overfill the glass, so leave a little extra space.
- Pour the Sambuca directly into the glass so that it fills up a little less than three-fourths of the glass.
- Using the technique described in the article Make Layered Shots, layer the Baileys Irish Cream over the Sambuca.
- Drip one single drop of grenadine onto the center of the top of the layer of Baileys Irish Cream. This can be done by pouring just a little bit of grenadine into a small measuring cup (such as a jigger) and, while holding the cup a few inches or more above the top of the cordial or shot glass, drip the grenadine onto the Baileys. The grenadine needs to pick up a little speed on its may down to the Baileys so that it can impact the layer of Baileys and form the nipple shape.
- Serve the drink.
Tips
- Instead of the drop of grenadine, a cherry can be used.
- Make the drink in the audience of others. The preparation of this drink is as neat as the drink itself.
Warnings
- Drink alcoholic beverages responsibly.
