FAQ's

Preparation techniques icon

How is Angel's Tit typically prepared since it's not shaken or stirred?

The Angel's Tit is carefully layered rather than mixed, shaken, or stirred. To prepare it, you would typically pour the Creme de Cacao into the shot glass first, followed gently by the Half and Half to create a distinct layering effect. This technique allows the ingredients to display a visually appealing separation in the glass.

Serving suggestions icon

What is the best way to serve the Angel's Tit cocktail to enhance its presentation?

Since the Angel's Tit usually features two distinct layers, serving it in a clear shot glass is ideal to showcase its visual appeal. Chilling the glass beforehand can also enhance the experience, as it keeps the drink colder for longer, providing a refreshing sip.

Ingredient substitutions icon

Can I substitute the Creme De Cacao (dark) in an Angel's Tit cocktail if I don't have it?

Yes, if you don't have dark Creme De Cacao, you can substitute it with a light Creme De Cacao for a similar flavor profile, though the visual appearance of the cocktail might be slightly lighter. If you're looking for a different taste profile, chocolate liqueur could be an interesting alternative, but keep in mind it might be sweeter.

Occasion suitability icon

What occasions are best suited for serving the Angel's Tit cocktail?

The Angel's Tit, with its sweet flavor and visually appealing presentation, is perfect for dessert or after-dinner drinks. It’s also suitable for themed parties or as a fancy shooter at gatherings. However, due to its unique name, be mindful of the audience and occasion.

Alcohol content comparison icon

How does the alcohol content in an Angel's Tit compare to other common cocktails?

With an alcohol content of 7.5%, the Angel's Tit is on the lower end of the alcohol spectrum for cocktails. For comparison, classic cocktails like a Margarita or a Martini typically have a higher alcohol content, ranging from 15% to over 30% depending on the preparation. The Angel's Tit is a milder option, making it a good choice for those preferring a less potent drink.
