Ingredients

Instructions

Layer Carefully:

  • Start by pouring 1 part dark crème de cacao into a cocktail glass.

Add the Mint Layer:

  • Gently float 1 part green crème de menthe over the crème de cacao using the back of a spoon, tilting the glass to help keep the layers separate.

Add the Whisky:

  • Slowly pour 1 part Canadian whisky over the green crème de menthe, again using the back of a spoon and tilting the glass for a clean layer.

Finish with Cream:

  • Finally, float 1 part cream on top by pouring it very gently over the back of a spoon. Tilting the glass can help create a smooth, distinct layer.

Serve Immediately:

  • Serve the layered drink immediately, and enjoy the rich, bold flavors as they blend together with each sip.
