What is Italian Flag?
The Italian Flag shot is a visually striking layered shooter inspired by the colors of Italy’s national flag. Green, white, and red stack cleanly in the glass, creating a bold presentation that looks far more complicated than it actually is. I think that’s part of the appeal. It feels fancy without being fussy.
Flavor-wise, it leans sweet and minty with a soft cocoa middle and a fruity finish. It’s not trying to be subtle, and honestly, that’s fine. This is a party shot, not a meditation exercise. It’s perfect for themed nights, celebrations, or anytime you want a little visual flair behind the bar.
Don't forget to see what other drinks you can make with the ingredients you already have in your bar.

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Pour the grenadine into a chilled shot glass. This will be your red base.
- Very slowly layer the white crème de cacao over the back of a bar spoon so it floats above the grenadine.
- Using the same technique, gently layer the green crème de menthe on top.
