# I've been making silly layered cocktails!


I have a stupid amount of spirits in my flat, so I thought I'd have a play with pousse cafe!

The top one was a little shot, I called RGB (though it probably exists somewhere else already) which is grenadine (red), midori (green) and curacao (blue).

Then I decided to see how many I could layer, and ended up with what I call the Opal Fruit (cos its fruity and looks like opaaal)

Going from the bottom:

Red- Grenadine
Purple- Creme de Menthe gone a bit crazy with colours either side.
Blue- Curacao
Green- Midori
Green/Pink- Passoa gently suspended in Archers
Thin clear gap- Water (because I felt like it)
Amber tint at the top- Southern Comfort



Whee.

# The shooter was especially nice
The full glass contains so many syrupy mixers that the amount of sugar will keep me awake until June.

I've put it in the fridge for tomorrow :P
