How to make a Layered Drink:
Layering drinks is all about the sugar content. The liquid with the most sugar will immediately sink to the bottom layer. For the Malibu sunset co*cktail, the grenadine syrup has the highest sugar content. The Grenadine will always sink to the bottom of the glass. The rest of the liquids will float on top.
The Grenadine should be slowly poured into the drink after the other ingredients are added. Use a spoon to slowly drizzle the Grenadine down the side of the glass. Be careful not to stir the the ingredients, the layers will easily mix together and lose the layered effect. Serve immediately after mixing.
The Malibu co*cktail is easy to make into layers as we have pictured. The video shows you how.
Learn the simple trick of layering the ingredients and your friends will all be asking how you did it. Fun, easy and perfect party eye candy.
