The ingredients and their effects
3 cl vodka
1 cl cream
2 cl coconut cream
4 cl pineapple juice
4 cl banana nectar
5 cl absinthe
3 cl rum (white)
The ingredients of the “Bitches Brew” are as versatile as the cocktail itself. The base is a strong mix of 3 cl vodka, 5 cl absinthe and 3 cl white rum. This combination gives the drink a powerful alcoholic note, which is rounded off by the addition of fruity and creamy elements. The 1 cl cream provides a soft, smooth texture, while the 2 cl coconut cream adds a tropical sweetness. The fresh pineapple juice (4 cl) and the banana nectar (4 cl) complement the cocktail with natural fruit notes that create a sweet and sour contrast to the strong spirits.
Preparation: The perfect shake
The preparation of the “Bitches Brew” is simple, but requires precision to harmoniously combine the different flavors. All ingredients are shaken vigorously in a shaker with plenty of ice. Shaking vigorously is crucial to mix the cream and coconut cream well with the fruit juices and spirits. The ice also chills the cocktail well, which softens the intensity of the absinthe and rum and gives the tropical aromas more room to develop.
Serving suggestions and decoration
After shaking, the “Bitches Brew” is strained into a cocktail glass or tumbler glass. There are various options for garnishing that give the drink a visually appealing touch. A classic choice is a slice of fresh pineapple draped on a cocktail stick together with a cocktail cherry. Alternatively, a fresh sprig of mint can be used, which not only gives the cocktail visual freshness, but also adds a light herbal note when placed on the rim of the glass. These garnishes give the “Bitches Brew” the finishing touch and make it a real eye-catcher.
