Pousse L'Amour

A theatrical, old-school pousse-café that tastes sweet and cherry-forward with a warm cognac finish and herbaceous notes from Bénédictine. It looks striking, distinct red, golden yolk and amber layers stacked in a slender glass, and is worth trying if you enjoy dessert-style, spirit-forward cocktails and the skill of precise layering.

Ingredients

  • 0.5 oz Bénédictine® Herbal Liqueur
  • 0.5 oz Cognac
  • 0.5 oz Maraschino Cherry Liqueur
  • 1 unit Egg

Instructions

  1. Pour Maraschino Liqueur into the bottom of a Pousse Cafe glass.
  2. Carefully slide an unbroken egg yolk on top of the Maraschino Liqueur.
  3. Gently layer Benedictine® Herbal Liqueur over the yolk using the back of a spoon.
  4. Finish by layering Cognac over the Benedictine® Herbal Liqueur.
