  • If you wish, place one stemless cherry at the bottom of the shot glass.
  • Use the back of the cocktail spoon to pour the grenadine into the bottom, to create the ‘nipple’ part.

Notes

  • Using the cocktail spoon — What makes this slippery nipple recipe cocktail so unique is the three separate and beautiful layers. However, one misstep and you end up with a mess in your hand. So, the cocktail spoon can come to your rescue. When pouring the Grenadine, Sambuca, and Irish cream, place the cocktail spoon upside down in the glass and pour the liquid down the length of the handle. This may require some practice, so feel free to try it out beforehand.
 
  • Tweaks and twists — The great thing about this slippery nipple recipe cocktail is that you have the freedom to tweak and twist any part you don’t like. The licorice flavor of the anise might taste strange to you, especially if you haven’t tried it before. If you do not like it, you can always swap it for vodka, a taste that you are likely to be more familiar with. Lastly, this slippery nipple recipe cocktail has a reputation for being too sweet for some people’s taste. To tone it down, you can skip the grenadine, although it would ruin the unique look.
