The Jellyfish cocktail recipe you’re interested in from Love with Recipes is a delightful and visually striking beverage that’s perfect for those looking to impress with their mixology skills. This cocktail combines the flavors of Amaretto, Creme de Cacao, and Baileys Irish Cream, with a creative touch of grenadine syrup to create the effect of jellyfish tentacles sinking through the drink.
Ingredients:
- 3/4 oz Amaretto
- 1 oz Creme de Cacao
- 1/2 oz Baileys Irish Cream
- 4-5 drops Grenadine syrup
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Shooter Glass: Start by pouring the Amaretto into the bottom of a shooter glass. This will form the base of your cocktail.
-
-
Layer the Creme de Cacao: Using a spoon, carefully ladle the Creme de Cacao over the Amaretto. The goal is to layer it gently to create a distinct separation of colors and flavors.
-
Add Baileys Irish Cream: Similarly, gently ladle the Baileys Irish Cream over the Creme de Cacao layer. Take your time to pour it slowly to maintain the layered effect.
-
Create the Jellyfish Effect: Now, for the fun part! Take a cocktail straw and hold it several inches above the drink. Use the straw to release drops of grenadine syrup. As the syrup falls into the drink, it will create a sinking effect, resembling jellyfish tentacles. The grenadine, being denser, will sink through the layers, creating a visually appealing effect.
-
Serve: Once you’ve created the jellyfish effect to your satisfaction, your Jellyfish cocktail is ready to be served. This drink is best enjoyed immediately after preparation to appreciate both its visual and flavor profile.
