"I was messing with layering for a shot when I wondered what would happen with Malibu and Creme de Violette- would they layer? Which would float? Turns out they don’t layer, but I didn’t mind once I tasted it. The flavors were an unexpected (to me) delight!
It is very sweet, so I wanted to add something earthy to help balance it a bit. A little reposado tequila did the trick beautifully. It layers nicely on top for a shot and balances and blends well when shaken for a cocktail.
Give it a shot! No pun intended but also very intended 😉.",
