Ingredients

How to make it

  1. Pour the peach schnapps into a shot glass.
  2. Slowly pour the Irish cream over the back of a bar spoon so it curdles into brain-like strands, then drip the grenadine in so it sinks through like blood.
  3. Drink before it settles.

Tip: Pour each layer slowly over the back of a bar spoon, heaviest first.

About the Brain Hemorrhage

The curdling is the point: the acidic schnapps sets the cream liqueur into strands. A Halloween favourite, also spelled Brain Haemorrhage.
