How to Drink Sheridan’s Coffee Layered Liqueur
Sheridan’s is a popular liqueur known for containing multiple layers of differently-flavored coffee crème liqueur and with a hint of Irish whiskey. This liqueur adds a twist to cocktails, desserts and any night out with friends. Here is a guide on the best way to enjoy Sheridan’s.
Background Information
Sheridan’s is a popular coffee-flavored cream liqueur that was created in 1991 by Rich Pollack, owner of Canyon Liquor Distributors of Houston, Texas. The drink has since become a popular shot liquor and can be found in bars, supermarkets and liquor stores around the world. The distinctive bottle is two-toned, black and white. It contains liqueur on the top and cream liqueurs on the bottom, each separately sealed to form two layers of the liqueur.
Proper Serving
Sheridan’s should be served cold, although some experts suggest serving at room temperature. The best way to serve is in a shot glass. Since the liqueur contains two separate flavors, you can pour one layer of the liqueur at a time. First pour the liqueur on the bottom, then slowly pour the liqueur from the top, allowing the two liquids to mix together as you pour them. The two layers will mix to create a distinct two-tone pattern, with the top layer slightly lighter than the bottom layer.
Flavor
Sheridan’s has a distinct flavor and aroma. The liqueur is made with Irish whiskey, coffee, cream, and specialty flavorings. The flavor is like a coffee-flavored Irish cream, with a hint of whiskey and nutty notes. It has a slightly sweet taste with a smooth finish. Although the alcohol content is only 17 percent, it has a good punch and can be quite strong.
Mixing
Sheridan’s is quite versatile and can be added to a variety of cocktails and other beverages. Add Sheridan’s to coffee for a unique and flavorful cocktail. To add a sweet and creamy twist to your favorite soda, add a shot of Sheridan’s to the drink. You can also add it to hot chocolate for a sweet and creamy dessert, or even make a milkshake with it for a unique flavor experience.
Food Pairings
Sheridan’s can be used to create delicious desserts and treats. It pairs well with chocolate, nuts and vanilla. Try adding a splash of Sheridan’s to an ice-cream sundae or a piece of chocolate cake. You can also use it to top cupcakes and brownies, or add it to food recipes such as ice cream, chocolate truffles and tiramisu.
Shooting Tips
When shooting Sheridan’s, it is best to throw the shot back quickly, in one smooth motion. Take a sip to get the flavor and then throw the shot back in one swift motion. This ensures that you get the full flavor of the liqueur without it tasting too strong. To make it smoother, you can add a little ice to the shot.
