Overview[edit]

The Orgasm is a popular cocktail known for its creamy texture and sweet flavor profile. It is typically served in a rocks glass and is often enjoyed as a dessert drink or after-dinner cocktail. The Orgasm cocktail is part of a family of drinks that includes other similarly named cocktails, such as the Screaming Orgasm.

Ingredients[edit]

The traditional Orgasm cocktail is made with equal parts of the following ingredients:

Amaretto
Coffee liqueur (such as Kahlúa)
Irish cream liqueur (such as Baileys Irish Cream)
Cream or half and half

To prepare an Orgasm cocktail, follow these steps:

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
Add equal parts of amaretto, coffee liqueur, Irish cream liqueur, and cream.
Shake well until the mixture is chilled.
Strain the mixture into a rocks glass filled with ice.

Variations[edit]

There are several variations of the Orgasm cocktail, each adding a unique twist to the original recipe:

Screaming Orgasm: This variation includes the addition of vodka to the original recipe, giving it a stronger alcoholic kick.
Multiple Orgasm: This version adds hazelnut liqueur (such as Frangelico) to the mix, enhancing the nutty flavor.
Layered Orgasm: Instead of shaking the ingredients, they are carefully layered in the glass to create a visually appealing drink.

Serving Suggestions[edit]

The Orgasm cocktail is best served chilled and can be garnished with a sprinkle of cocoa powder or a cherry for added visual appeal. It is often enjoyed as a dessert cocktail due to its rich and creamy flavor.
