Mixing success

5 parts table cream
4 parts Licor 43
3 parts Scotch (I used Grant's Sherry Cask)
1 part Cointreau

Shake gently with ice and strain into a chilled martini glass.

This is a fairly strong [ETA: and sweet] cocktail, with smoothness from the cream and 43, alcohol warmth coming mainly from the Scotch, vanilla and other more subtle flavors from the 43, and an orange note (which comes through especially in the finish) from the Cointreau.

Sounds good.

If I like it and [livejournal.com profile] soul_diaspora likes it (she'll sometimes taste things like this), I consider it a good mix.
