The Other Half

A bold, sweet shooter that pairs orange-citrus notes from triple sec with marzipan almond warmth from amaretto, capped by a high-proof rum flame. It pours as three distinct amber-to-gold layers and is worth trying for its dramatic presentation and intense boozy finish.

Ingredients

  • 0.75 oz Triple Sec Liqueur
  • 0.75 oz Amaretto Liqueur
  • 1 oz Bacardi® 151 Rum

Instructions

  1. Carefully use the back of a spoon to layer Triple Sec into the shot glass.
  2. Next, gently layer the Amaretto on top of the Triple Sec using the spoon.
  3. Finally, float the Bacardi® 151 Proof Rum over the Amaretto to create the final layer.
  4. Dim the lights, and using a long match or lighter, carefully ignite the rum to gently warm the rim of the glass.
  5. Allow the flame to burn briefly and then safely blow it out before consuming the drink.
