Cocktail
Garnish & Finish
Method
Cocktail
- 1
Shake
Add the vodka, hazelnut liqueur, amaretto, and Irish cream to a cocktail shaker. Fill the shaker with ice (about 6 medium cubes).
- 2
Mix
Shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is well chilled and slightly frosted. This both chills and lightly dilutes the cream for a smooth texture.
- 3
Strain
Double-strain into a chilled coupe or rocks glass. For a rocks presentation, serve over fresh ice; for a coupe, serve neat.
Garnish & Finish
- 4
Garnish with a light dusting of chocolate shavings or a sprinkle of cocoa powder over the top. Optionally float a toasted hazelnut on the surface or place it on the glass rim.
