The Glass Tower is March 28th Drink of the Day!!

March 28, 2014 | By Shaun the Bartender | Add a Comment

Here’s one you may only keep to having one of when you are out socializing, or you will find yourself speaking in a tongue only you will be able to understand. A very potent drink indeed!

Combining five liquors will make any cocktail a serious one. This is more of a three-in-one, meaning you may want to sip slowly on it and enjoy every flavor this beverage has to offer. The one flavor that will override the others if it’s overused is the Sambuca, which you will have to measure in moderation. In the recipe below, I use a half ounce versus 3/4 oz. with the others. However, you may want to give it less to meet your standards. Just a fair warning.

Even with the amount of ingredients in this, it is very easy to make due to it only being a build and stir cocktail. Just don’t throw any stones at this by drinking too many in one sitting. One will be enough to do the trick. Enjoy and be responsible. Cheers!
