Napalm Death is a modern layered shooter built from equal quarter-ounce measures of Coffee Liqueur, Drambuie, Baileys Irish Cream, and Cointreau. Each layer contributes a distinct flavor and texture, from dark coffee and herbal honey to cream and orange.
What You'll Need
Ingredients
- Coffee Liqueur - dark roasted base layer.
- Drambuie - honeyed herbs and Scotch depth.
- Baileys Irish Cream - creamy sweetness.
- Cointreau - bright orange finish.
Equipment
- Shot Glass
- Bar spoon
- Jigger
Four Equal Layers, One Main Challenge
The recipe is easy to remember, but clean separation depends on slow pouring and ingredient density. No flame is required.
Substitutions & Variations
- Use another Irish cream instead of Baileys.
- Use another quality orange liqueur in place of Cointreau.
- Serve mixed if presentation is not important.
Helpful Tips
- Chill all four ingredients before building.
- Pour slowly over the back of a spoon.
- Keep the spoon close to the previous layer.
- Let each layer settle before adding the next.
- Serve immediately without igniting the drink.
