Sweet Shot

O Jelly Bean é um simples shot de dois ingredientes que combina conhaque de amora com licor de anis em partes iguais, criando um perfil de sabor que genuinamente imita o doce que lhe deu nome. A doçura escura da fruta do conhaque de amora e o caráter de alcaçuz do anis combinam para produzir um sabor familiar e nostálgico. Servido em um copo de cordial ou shot.

History & Origins

Candy-flavored shots became a staple of American bar culture in the 1980s and 1990s, when fruit liqueurs and flavored spirits gained wide commercial availability. The Jelly Bean shot is a product of this era, exploiting the natural flavor affinity between anise and blackberry that has been recognized in European confectionery for generations. The exact origin is disputed.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Sweet blackberry and star anise, with a licorice character reminiscent of the candy. Palate: Very sweet and playful — the blackberry brandy's dark fruit richness blends seamlessly with the anis's licorice-anise flavor to create a genuinely candy-like experience. Finish: Sweet and lingering, with anise dominating the finish.

Pro Tip

Mix at room temperature in equal parts in a small glass — no ice needed as the sweet flavors are best appreciated at slightly warmer temperatures.
