Detailed description
Jelly Bean is a candy shots built around liqueur and cordial. Old-school candy-shop weirdness that somehow lands with charming retro swagger.
The build centers on 1/2 oz blackberry brandy, 1/2 oz anisette, and 1/2 oz white creme de cacao. In the glass, blackberry brandy gives it a jammy start, then anisette flashes a licorice note before white cacao softens the landing with creamy confectionery sweetness.
It comes together in 3 minutes and is served in a shot glass. This is a fast 3 minutes build, so it works best when everything is measured before you start.
