This shooter cocktail gets its name from Quick Firing, meaning to aim straight for ones target be that an actual target in the field, or that cute stranger across the bar! Floating Irish cream liqueur on top of the MIDORI allows its aromatic melon flavor to smoothly spread across the palate. Shooter cocktails are generally considered as drinks to appreciate with the eyes before enjoying the aromas and flavors, but recently they are also being served shaken, creating a fusion of flavors. For the Q.F. Shooter, however, the ingredients can be best enjoyed if served and consumed layered.

Preparation:
10 ml (1/3 oz) Midori Liqueur
10 ml (1/3 oz) Irish Cream Liqueur
10 ml (1/3 oz) Coffee Liqueur

Pour Midori into a glass.
Hold the Maraschino cherry over the glass.
Build a layer of coffee liqueur over cherry.
Build another layer with cream liqueur.
Remove the cherry.
