How to make a Bubble Gum

To make a Bubble Gum, layer carefully into a shot glass: ⅓ oz vodka, ⅓ oz Banana liqueur, ⅓ oz orange juice and ⅓ oz Peach schnapps.

You'll need

1 drink

Instructions

  1. 1

    Pour the ingredients into a shot glass one at a time, heaviest first (usually the sweetest, lowest-proof liquid) and lightest last.

  2. 2

    Pour slowly over the back of a bar spoon held just above the drink, so each layer floats on the one below.

  3. 3

    Serve straight away, before the layers mix.

Why pour slowly? Heavier liquids sink, so pouring gently over a spoon lets each layer float on the one below.
