Sue's Law
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.9 / 5
Sue's Law is a creamy and indulgent cocktail that features a rich blend of flavors. This concoction combines the smooth and velvety characteristics of Bailey's Irish Cream with the warm and oaky notes of brandy. To add an extra layer of complexity, amaretto, a sweet Italian liqueur made from almonds, infuses the drink with hints of nuttiness and a slight touch of fruity sweetness. The marriage of these ingredients results in a luxurious and comforting beverage typically enjoyed in a lowball glass. Sue's Law is suited for those who appreciate a dessert-like cocktail with a sophisticated edge.

FAQ's

Preparation techniques icon

How do I properly stir Sue's Law to achieve the best taste?

To properly stir Sue's Law, fill your lowball glass with ice to chill it first. Combine the Bailey's, Brandy, and Amaretto in a mixing glass filled with ice. Use a long spoon to stir the mixture gently but thoroughly for about 20-30 seconds. This method helps to chill the drink and integrate the flavors without diluting it too much. Strain the mixture into your chilled lowball glass.

Serving suggestions icon

What is the best way to serve Sue's Law?

Sue's Law is best served in a chilled lowball glass. This type of glass allows the rich aromas and flavors of the liqueurs to be fully appreciated. Serve it over a large ice cube or several smaller ones to keep it cold without diluting the flavors too quickly. Garnish options might be minimal due to the drink's rich profile; however, a simple orange twist or a maraschino cherry can add a nice touch.
