German Cherry Bomb Shooter Recipe

Pinterest Hidden Image

The German Cherry Bomb is a layered shooter that tastes like a chocolate covered cherry candy. And it’s not as hard to pour as you might think.

This drink actually doesn’t involve any cherries – that flavor comes from the grenadine passes for that flavor. Godiva chocolate liqueur gives it the wonderful flavor from the shell of a chocolate covered candy.

Those two flavors are great together, but the cream cuts down on the sweetness and blends the other ingredients together wonderfully.

And of course, you’re only talking half an ounce of alcohol – liqueur, specifically, so this is a pretty weak little drink. Which makes shooting these rather fun!

You can also make it into a longer drink. Just pour into a larger glass, like a rocks glass or short tumbler. Or even a martini glass.

Layering cocktails is not as hard as you think – scroll down to watch my quick video on how to to it. One additional tip to make it easier: use pourers on your bottles to make them pour more smoothly when they’re full.
