RECIPES USING THE JUICER AND BLENDER - COCKTAILS
MANGO, RASPBERRY AND PEAR
LAYERED COCKTAIL
Makes 2 serving
Layering, also known as floating or
stacking, uses the different densities of
various liquids to create an attractive
array of colored layers. Pouring these
drinks is easier than you might think:
you just need to know the specific
gravity of each liquid you’re working
with, and pour them in order from
heaviest to lightest. Liqueurs with the
most dissolved sugar and the least
alcohol are densest and are put at the
bottom. These include fruit juices and
cream liqueurs. Those with the least
water and the most alcohol, such as
rum with 75% alcohol by volume, are
floated on top
