I used to make a riff on a tiramisu shot with a chilled espresso vodka mix layered on Irish cream and with a teaspoon of chocolate ice cream as a float. If the espresso comes out too dense, switch the build order and it becomes a riff on an affogato shot

I worked as a bartender in an upscale restaurant outside New Orleans in the early 80’s. I made quite a few of those. No utensils, just tipped the glass to the side. It went pretty quickly & I enjoyed making them. Ours were very colorful. One of the few drinks I took pride in making. Had no idea people these days had ever heard of it 😂

Pro Tip: If your arch nemesis is a bartender, ask for one of these and shoot it straight while maintaining intense eye contact with them. Not only does this prove your dominance, it also provides a nice buzz so you can be escorted out of the bar feeling refreshed and invigorated.

Beautiful video, as always. It brought back happy memories of my French Canadian mom. She loved to entertain, and always after the meal there would be the offer of "a little pousse cafe"....the bottles of cognac, brandy, kahlua, grand marnier, anisette (and others) and the little crystal glasses would appear alongside the coffee. Serve yourself. You take it to a whole new level.

[@MirlitonPirogue]

I still have my grandparents pousse cafe glasses (they were from south Louisiana). In that era, it wasn't a bar drink but something they made at home after a dinner with their friends. The ashtrays they had were EPIC.

[@luceaschild]

Where has this video been all of my life? As a young child reading bar books in our library, *this* was the drink I always wanted to try... When I grew up and actually learned how to make cocktails, I wondered how on earth people would drink it (shoot it, or sip it? But weird flavor combinations, so it was hard to imagine). You've answered everything. Time to finally try it!

[@isaacb4229]

I received my package of bartender's blend coffee! I knew it was going to be good, but was still pleasantly surprised by *how* good it was. To me I get notes of chocolate and berry. The coffee is not overly acidic and very easy drinking. It has become my weekend treat with breakfast. Something I can linger over, taking the time to enjoy the aroma and flavors.

[@cma9841]

Just made a French press of it today and am also pleasantly surprised how good it is! Cheers!

I'm French and here a "pousse café" is just a colloquial term for a digestif (usually cognac, or pear liqueur) that you have at the end of the meal (to push the coffee, that you have last in a meal)

A pousse-café is any digestif that you drink together with or after your coffee (ofcourse: after a meal). It has nothing to do with any "layering" of booze. But it's an option -- I reckon... For instance, a plain cognac or whisky can be a pousse-café.

Thanks for this, I had one of these several years ago. I was on travel for work in Tampa on my birthday. I don't recall the bar, but the bartender made a layered drink he called birthday cake for me. It was amazing and tasted like cake. I have not been able to replicate or have another of the same quality. I now understand a bit more of the process.

[@Alchemizingg]

The only time I had one of these is when I was living in Nola and my roommate, a 7th generation NO local, worked at Pat Os. I sat at his bar and he proceeded to make me every New Orleans cocktail he knew. The gin fizz stole my heart that day.

I swear, the stuff is almost magic.

The coffee also refreshes/resets your olfactories which also refreshes the taste of the drink between coffee sips.

[@colvingenealogy]

I work PT for an upscale catering company. The bartenders are used to slinging standard lowballs, beer and wine. There is a huge turnover and I have yet to meet one that has ever heard of a posse cafe. I learned about it years ago when I worked in an upscale restaurant and the bartender manager told me about it. She said it was one of the drinks she would ask about in her interviews to determine how experienced the bartender was who applied to work at her bar. They served them rarely, but it was a good barometer of how skilled the bartender was.

[@danielgalil5020]

Oh my g-d Anders I'm so happy that you brought up a drink from the 1862 Bon Vivant's companion. Two of my favorite drinks are in there. First is the one off Brandy punch, which is Cognac, simple, Rasberry syrup and lemon. The other which is my go to drink is the Brandy Cocktail(you of course know what I mean when I say cocktail in this context). It's Cognac, Gum, Bokers and dry curacao. Now that you opened the box of getting super nerdy by doing this video(please also forgive me for my enthusiasm, I'm just so happy you brought up a forgotten classic), the old fashioned really wasn't a throw back to the Whiskey Cocktail, but rather the brandy cocktail with Whiskey instead of cognac and sugar instead of gum. In fact if you look in Harry Johnson's Bartenders guide the old fashioned did have dry curacao. This is going to shock many people, but the Whiskey cocktail in the 1862 bartenders guide had no lemon twist and was served up. It was also shakened. Much love.

[@davtor]

In Sweden we've a traditional drink, or a shot I guess, called the "Hot shot". Hadn't learned the term Pousse Café before, but this variation of it is made out of 1/3 of Galliano (mild 30% vanilla liqueur, similar to Licor 43), 1/3 of freshly brewed coffee (kinda like Americano coffee), and 1/3 of lightly whipped heavy cream. Legend has it that the popularity of the drink throughout Sweden made the producers having to open up an additional factory to meet the demand of the Galliano Vanilla. Anyhow, the drink is supposed to be enjoyed right away (c. 4-6 cl) and is often made at home before heading out, or at bars (often quite reluctantly, unless they're "out of coffee" haha). The drink is eyeballed and definitely takes a while to create, but it's easy to scale up the drinks for larger crowds in normal shot glasses. Also it's quite fun to make and it tastes great, especially with the mix of temperatures (room-temp liqueur, brewed coffee, and fridge-cold cream). Great and informative video as always, thanks Anders!

you can "deconstruct" cocktails as a pousse café shot. for example a Negroni layered. as a shot. it's a fun thing to do. and try around. but don't think about driving the next 2 days

[@patdnaseq]

I made all of the pousse café drinks that are listed in Tom Bullock’s pre-Prohibition book, “The Ideal Bartender!” Every night during February (which is Black History Month), I made a different cocktail from his book. I am African-American; and Tom Bullock was a famous African-American barman who lived and worked in the same city as I currently live in - St. Louis, MO (USA) - and Bullock worked at the St. Louis Country Club. There is a high-end bar here, Planter’s House, that has an entire period-decorated room that they’ve named after him (The Bullock Room). Bullock was rather famous, in part, for his fondness for crafting pousse cafés. So, for the very last night of making cocktails from The Ideal Bartender, I saved the last, most elaborate remaining pousse café recipe in his book…I doused the lights…and I lit it afire! And filmed it, of course. If you ever re-do this video, you may wish to consider mentioning the huge presentation opportunity that topping a pousse café with an overproof liquor presents-the obvious opportunity to set it on fire! (On another night, the top layer ended up being either an underproof brandy or a Cognac, I forget. In order to make it flammable, I first nuked the bit of liquor that I wanted to top with separately within the microwave until it just started to steam (and almost boil), and then I decanted it over a spoon to top the other layers. By increasing the kinetic energy in this way , I was render the underproof liquor which would NOT have been able to be lit aflame into something that was flammable. Voila!😀💪🏾
