Ever wondered why a simple shot has two unforgettable names? Today, we’re diving deep into the Buttery Nipple and its wild cousin, the Cocksucking Cowboy shot. These two bold names might make you blush, but the drink itself? It’s a classic, and surprisingly simple: butterscotch schnapps and Irish cream.
In this episode, we break down the history, cultural quirks, and differences between the two names. Why does Australia love the Cocksucking Cowboy, while the rest of the world seems to prefer the Buttery Nipple? And how did these names come about in the first place? We’re digging into the science behind layering shots, discussing regional twists, and exploring what these names tell us about the drink, its origins, and even a bit of cocktail culture.
So, whether you're making a Buttery Nipple or going bold with a Cocksucking Cowboy, pour yourself a shot and enjoy the wild ride! 🍻
