Method
Preparation
Prepare the Espresso
Brew a shot of espresso and allow it to cool to room temperature. This will ensure the cocktail isn't too hot when served.
Combine the Liquors
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine the Flor de Caña Rum, Disaronno Velvet, and Luxardo Cherry Liqueur. Shake well for about 15 seconds.
Strain into Glass
Strain the cocktail mixture into a chilled glass, leaving enough space for the espresso and the scoop of ice cream.
Add the Espresso
Slowly pour the cooled espresso over the cocktail mixture in the glass. This will create a layered effect.
Top with Ice Cream
Finally, add a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of the cocktail. Optionally, you can garnish with a cherry or chocolate shavings.
