How to Make the Christmas Tree Mixed Drink

Video Transcript

"Today I'm going to demonstrate how to make a "Christmas Tree Shot". Now there is a couple variations of this cocktail so I'm going to show you one of these variations right now. It is a layered shot so you want to get your shot glass ready and you want to have a bar spoon handy or a maraschino cherry with a stem. Now our ingredients here are going to be Grenadine, a cherry pomegranate flavored syrup held behind any bar or restaurant, a dark creme de menthe and last but not least our Bailey's Irish Cream. So we are going to get our shot glass ready and we are going to fill the bottom third of our shot glass up with Grenadine. After which we are going to layer on our second alcohol which is going to be our creme de menthe and you are just going to pierce the top of the Grenadine with the bar spoon and you are going to pour the creme de menthe right on to the spoon creating a really distinctive layer. From there you have one last alcohol and that's going to be your Bailey's Irish Cream and you are going to do the exact same thing except on that second layer. That is your "Christmas Tree Shot". Three distinct layers, really fun, great culinary appeal, hope you enjoy."
