🌈 Tropical Sunset Layered Shot
Layered to Impress. Glowing Like a Sunset. 🍹✨
Sweet, citrusy mango. Vibrant green Midori. Smooth white or coconut rum. This shot’s not just delicious—it’s a whole performance. Whether you’re hosting a party or just feeling extra, this one brings both the flavor and the flair.
🍍 What to Grab:
1 oz chilled mango juice
½ oz Midori (melon liqueur)
½ oz white or coconut rum
Ice (for shaking)
Optional: a small glass or tall shot glass to show off the layers
🎨 How to Make It:
1. Start with the Midori base
Pour ½ oz Midori into your shot glass. This vibrant green is the foundation of your tropical “sunset.”
2. Shake the mango juice + rum
In a shaker filled with ice, combine:
1 oz mango juice
½ oz white or coconut rum
Shake well to chill.
3. Layer it up
Slowly pour the mango-rum mixture over the back of a spoon into the glass so it gently floats on top of the Midori. The color shift creates a golden-orange glow above the green base — sunset in a shot glass. 🌅
🌺 Optional Garnish:
Tiny lime wedge on the rim
Pineapple leaf or umbrella pick for tropical flair
Rim with coconut sugar for extra sweetness and texture
💬 Final Sip:
Bright, smooth, and stunning in the glass — this Tropical Sunset Shot is a mini vacation in one perfect pour. It’s the kind of drink that makes people say, “Wait, what’s THAT?” 🌴🔥
