A WORD FROM THE BARTENDERS

When serving a liqueur neat, make sure it’s at room temperature before pouring it into the glass. Remember, too, that liqueurs, with their complex flavors and aromas, are meant to be savored at a leisurely pace: Guzzling them is akin to drinking the last drops of a soup from the bowl when dining out.
