B-52, Beavis edition

Anne, I found several recipes that called for Grand Marnier, so I don't think you were led astray.
I made this slightly differently. Instead of pouring over a spoon, I tilted the shot glass and very slowly poured the Bailey's and the Grand Marnier in directly from the bottle. There was a little mixing of the the top two layers, but it came out fine:


For the second one I tried the spoon method and got a mixture — and a mess.

Now, the more alert among you might notice Carly's favorite liquor, Bacardi 151, sitting there in the background. "What's that doing there?" you're asking. "That's not an ingredient!"

But it can be. There's a flaming version of this shot, which I tried to make by slowly pouring the 151 on top of the liquor soup. It mixed too, so I didn't get much of a flame:


However, I neglected to read ALL of the instructions. You're supposed to drink this version through a straw, since the flame makes the glass so hot it'll burn your lips if you try to shoot it. I dumped it into the other glass, creating a soupy tan mess. The shot is definitely better in layers.

So, the lowdown:

Manly or Girly? Girly-ish. There's a lot of alcohol in there.

Appearance: When done right, layers of tan and brown. When done improperly, weak chocolate milk.

Consistency: Almost creamy.

Taste: A nice balance of sweetness and booze bite.

Stomach acceptance: Just fine.

Good drink for: Someone's birthday, a turning-21 celebration, or a bachelorette party.

Hangover factor: Probably high, if you do a few of them.

Would I actually order this in public? No. But I would drink one if a round came my way.
