Notes
Most shot glasses hold 2 ounces of liquid, so I usually put only 1.5 ounces of liquor in each. This means the 747 shot, with its 3 ingredients, will have equal parts of each one.
Invest in a few pourers that will help you with your layering.
Using a pourer helps to control the pour, which is critical to layering any shot. But if you do use a pourer, you will have to eyeball your quantities because they’re coming straight out of the bottle, unmeasured.
When layering shots, place the heaviest liquor on the bottom and work your way up in weight.
How to layer a shot: Use either a cocktail spoon or a regular iced coffee teaspoon.
Always place the spoon upside down with the bowl-side facing up in and against the side of the glass. You will then slowly pour the liquid over the bowl and into the glass.
