What is "pousse-cafe"?

Pousse-café is a type of drink that is known for its visually stunning presentation. It is typically composed of several layers of different colored liqueurs or cordials, stacked one on top of the other in a narrow, straight-sided glass. The layers are created by carefully pouring each liqueur or cordial over the back of a spoon and allowing it to settle on top of the previous layer. The result is a striking and appealing drink that showcases the different colors and flavors of the various liqueurs. Pousse-café is often served as a dessert or after-dinner drink, and can be customized with a variety of different liqueurs and cordials to suit individual tastes. While it is a visually impressive drink, it is important to remember that Pousse-café is typically high in sugar and alcohol content, and should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
