Level 28
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.8 / 5
The Level 28 cocktail is a drink that delivers a punch of flavor in a small package, served in a shot glass. It is a blend that predominantly features vodka and Frangelico, a hazelnut liqueur, which combines the clean taste of the vodka with the sweet, nutty flavor of the Frangelico. This concoction is devoid of lemon, sugar, and coffee as direct ingredients within the drink itself, but these components play a role in the overall experience. The intriguing name, Level 28, remains a conversation starter, perhaps hinting at an experience that takes one's taste buds to new heights or possibly referring to an inside narrative that adds to its mystique. This cocktail offers a simple yet sophisticated taste profile suited for those who appreciate a straightforward shot with complexity that comes from the ritualistic consumption method involving citrus and a hint of coffee.
