One thing I really do miss about working here. Throwing back a round of undertows at 5:30am while you're opening

What in the motherfuck is an undertow i am green bean

So to put it simply you take a double updosed shot and pour it over cold milk with usually a pump or two of syrup using a steaming spoon that's been cooled off by sticking it into ice to give it that layered look. Once it's cooled enough that you won't burn your entire mouth and throat you throw it all back like a shot. Quick way to wake up a bit in the morning

thats a lot more specific than what i was taught. thanks for details

JustAnotherUBStudent 7 points 11m ago

Always happy to help educate. Though the updosed shot may have just been my.store specifically. Always was a blonde updosed shot for max caffeine

theimposteramongus 3 points 11m ago

Sounds awesome thank you!

Off topic -

the store that I go to doesn't have the Mastrena CS2 , so they can't do updosed shote. I'm wondering if they will ever get one.

i haven’t successfully made a layered undertow yet but i’m leaving the company soon so i better get to it

Make sure to pour the shots over a bar spoon if you’re not already doing that :) should help with the layering

an undertow in the morning is a great way to get the bowels going ☠️

This is the reason why I can never have one at the beginning of a shift 💀

Jkoochie 1 points 11m ago

This is exactly my issue! I usually wait til my first 10 and get things moving haha

TJW351 8 points 11m ago

I’ve never seen one made in a shot glass. It’s cool to actually be able to see the layering

undertoe776 7 points 11m ago

These have become my go-to throughout the day as a way to shake things up. I used to make them all the time. They are now back. 😁 I like to make mine with 4 ristretto blonde shots. So yummy!!

Paverunner 3 points 11m ago

Undertow?

RubySapphireSage 2 points 11m ago

Me being a closer just gulping back 3 blond ristrets .

I’m the only one in my store who doesn’t like undertows 😭 I don’t like the hot+cold+syrup texture combo
