Howdy Ya'll,

I've been diligently typing away in the last chapter of my story Spinning Out. In this chapter there is a couple bar scenes. One of these features River playing a game that is basically like quarters while Jayne goes around the bar taking bets on the competitions. I decided to write in a layered shot that takes out a merchant spacer. I described it as such:

Quote:

The bartender returned to River’s table and sat the drink in front of the spacer. “What the hell is that?” the spacer whined. The shot had three layers. The bottom layer was an opaque dark brown liquid, the middle was a clear rusty color, and the top layer was a bright yellow liquid.
“It’s a Blonde Browncoat,” replied the bartender.
The spacer picked the shot up and sniffed it. He quickly set it back down shaking his head, “No I can’t. Too sweet. My stomach’s full of beer and...”



After writing that I wondered if I could concoct something that would match the story. Here it is...

Bottom Layer - Kahlua
Middle Layer - Amaretto
Top Layer - Yellow Chartreuse

If somebody wants to try that please do. I don't make it out to the bars much and I don't like to keep more than one bottle alcohol in the house. And a bottle of Yellow Chartreuse is pretty expensive if memory serves me right.

The specific gravity of the layers should be spaced out enough to make it easy to layer. But it you or your bartender is having trouble with it you can do up some shots and put them in the fridge for an hour. The layers will find their homes naturally.


I apollogize for posting this initially without any text. It's that damn touchpad again!

I must have a problem with my brain being missing, because as nasty as that sounds I want to try it. Only one sip though, and followed by an enormous glass of water, but yeah I'd try it.
