Pousse Cafe Recipe

Recipe By Slurrp

Pousse Cafe is a layered cocktail that is visually stunning and delicious. It is made by carefully layering different colored liqueurs to create a beautiful gradient effect. The layers are created by pouring each liqueur over the back of a spoon, allowing them to float on top of each other. Pousse Cafe is typically served in a tall, narrow glass to showcase the layers. It is a popular choice for special occasions and can be customized with different liqueurs to suit your taste.
