Detailed description
Liquid Cocaine is a spicy and savory shots built around rum. Big flavor, bigger reputation, and definitely not a quiet entry in the lineup.
The build centers on 1/2 oz Jägermeister, 1/2 oz gold rum, and 1/2 oz peppermint schnapps. In the glass, mint strikes first with a cold flash, then rum sweetness and Jäger's herbal intensity pile in for a shot that feels loud, strange, and unforgettable.
It comes together in 3 minutes and is served in a shot glass. Serve it right after mixing so the salty or spicy finish stays bright and direct.
